Implications of Artificial intelligence for Human rights

As Artificial Intelligence (AI) constantly advances, many questions arise regarding the implications of Artificial Intelligence on Human Rights. Several scandals, like the ones concerning Cambridge Analytica or FaceApp as well as China’s use of AI for mass surveillance, repression and social scoring, show that some uses of Artificial Intelligence have the potential to gravely violate Human Rights. As AI technology advances there is understandable need to safeguard and guarantee Human Rights. Renew Europe can contribute to the EU’s legislative process on AI through setting the right political and legal framework that steers towards a world where we can benefit from AI without infringements on Human Rights.
