🤝 #AI MEETS #DeceptiveTradePracticeLaws Interesting crossover happening with state-by-state policy to keep developers, suppliers and users of AI, Accountable Massachusetts Attorney General's Office, Andrea Joy Campbell "As AI usage becomes more common, this advisory serves as an important notice that our state’s #consumerprotection, anti-discrimination, and #dataprivacy laws apply to AI, just as they would within any other applicable context, and my office intends to enforce these laws accordingly.” https://lnkd.in/gBWprfKn

Interesting developments. The proposed “risk and goal based” legislation which includes creating a "licensing regime" for companies "engaged in high-risk AI development," is identical to the approach that the EU has adopted. https://lnkd.in/gSzjg5RK

Despite the media headlines that may lead one to believe that there are no laws applicable to artificial intelligence in the US, existing federal and state laws apply, along with a series of frameworks issued by various federal agencies. Moreover, AI-specific laws exist in a number of states, with additional states considering laws addressing various uses of AI-enabled technology.

It is almost 12 years to the day that I began my career in the field of human rights at the Institute for Human Rights and Business as their ICT researcher. So it was a real pleasure to be asked back by my good friend Salil Tripathi to write about #AI regulation and the role of the #UNGPs. What struck me while writing this blog is how the UNGPs have stood the test of time and are as relevant to technological developments in 2024 as they were in 2012. Regulating AI is not easy, but as long as human rights are the standard onto which everything else is built, we're on the right path.
"Today, many countries are facing the enormous and complex task of setting rules to ensure AI development and use is safe, secure and trustworthy. "Where are we now, and could existing standards for corporate conduct like the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs) assist States in developing AI regulations?" Read IHRB's latest guest commentary from Lucy Purdon, Founder of Courage Everywhere, on the role of human rights frameworks as a tool to help regulate AI. https://lnkd.in/drikWJnZ

Lawyer I Policymaker I Tech Entrepreneur * Using tech and business innovation to propel equitable economic development * Responsible Artificial Intelligence * Blockchain * VR/AR
The EU just announced that it negotiated a political deal on the Artificial Intelligence Act, leading the way on the first comprehensive AI law in the world. It reached an agreement on controversial topics such as predictive policing, facial recognition and the use of AI by law enforcement. More technical work will flush out specifics but this a huge development providing much needed guidance to companies. During last month’s AI Transformation Leadership Council, I provided updates on global AI regulation. Although this tech is evolving rapidly, legal frameworks are struggling to keep pace. There is no single global framework, but instead, there is a patchwork of national and regional approaches. Below are highlights: The EU's AI Act regulates the sale and use of AI systems based on a risk-based framework, with categories for unacceptable, high, limited, and minimal risk. Unacceptable risk systems, considered a clear threat to safety, livelihoods, and rights, will be banned. While high risk systems such as those used in facial recognition and recruitment, will be subject to strict requirements, including transparency, human oversight, and data governance. In the US, Congress hasn't passed national #ai or data privacy laws even though over 50 AI and data privacy bills have been introduced during this 118th Congressional session. Despite this, Congress is not likely to pass a broad national AI law anytime soon. Any successful laws will likely focus on less controversial issues like funding AI research and domain-specific agency actions especially in health care, financial services, housing, workforce, and child safety. As a result of Congress’ lack of progress on AI regulation, states are acting through their legislatures and governor executive orders (14 states enacted AI laws in the past year). President Biden issued an Executive Order on safe, secure, and trustworthy AI in October with guidelines for development and use. He used the Defense Production Act as the basis for the Order. Now, U.S. government departments/agencies will work on implementation, which focuses on: - Ensuring AI safety and security through testing standards and public-private collaboration. - Protecting privacy via supporting privacy-enhancing technologies. - Advancing equity by tackling algorithmic discrimination in areas like criminal justice. - Empowering consumers and workers through policies curbing AI harms. - Driving competition and innovation via research investments and immigration reforms. It is important to note that unlike acts of Congress, Executive Orders cannot create new agencies or grant new regulatory powers over private companies. They can also be undone by the next president. Overall, a uniform global framework is needed to ensure AI safety and responsible development. A patchwork of regulations creates confusion and challenges for businesses. #airegulation #artificialintelligence #tech https://lnkd.in/ezWT7ZPa

Where is AI Regulation Heading and What Can Companies Do to Prepare? | Shook, Hardy & Bacon L.L.P. - JDSupra: Summary: Companies that adopt artificial intelligence (AI) should be aware of existing legal frameworks and pending legislation that regulate AI use. The Federal Trade Commission oversees general practices and has taken enforcement actions against AI deployers. Several states have enacted comprehensive privacy laws, and proposed federal legislation is being developed. Companies can prepare for AI regulation by developing an AI inventory, updating risk assessment procedures, creating a multi-stakeholder working group, and keeping records of AI system evaluation. - Artificial Intelligence topics! #ai #artificialintelligence #intelligenzaartificiale

Last week, the EU passed the AI Act, the first of its kind. Here's why it's not going to make a big difference. The Act's goals are making sure AI technology is safe and respects rights while also encouraging new innovations in the field. The key premise is a sliding scale of restrictions based on how dangerous the Parliament considered the AI activity to be. So, if you're generating images of cats? No worries. If you're building a model to monitor employee facial expressions so you can fire the less chipper workers? Banned. And, in classic EU fashion, if your activity falls somewhere in between, the answer is "it depends." While safeguards are important, what we're seeing in the AI Act is more for show than for real. Here's a good example: when fake pictures or sound are used, the Act requires that it be labeled as a "deepfake." That's like saying we're going to combat fraud by making criminals hold up a sign that says "I'm committing fraud." More broadly, using AI to unfairly monitor people or make prejudiced decisions about them is already illegal under a host of theories from labor and employment law to GDPR. And to that point, GDPR is a helpful cautionary tale. We're eight years out since GDPR was passed, and the supposed privacy revolution it was meant to usher in hasn't materialized. Why? Because although the legal framework was in place, the public and regulator appetite for enforcement wasn't. Worse, it has helped the largest players in the market solidify their position because they're able to cover compliance costs in a way smaller firms can't. And when you have a complicated, expensive law with little enforcement, it gives the public a perception of a non-event. That's what the AI Act seems to be: a lot of phrasing around values, but a very low chance of seeing those values enforced, and very little risk to the current giants. I guess we'll have to wait for the next big law for that.

Are you using personal health data to train AI? Do you have AI-powered decision-making tools that use personal information? State-level privacy and AI legislation and rulemaking continue to develop, putting pressure on companies to assess their compliance now rather than waiting for more law and guidance. Privacy laws like the California Consumer Privacy Act and Colorado Privacy Act are still a main driver of AI protections at the state level. We are also seeing other approaches to AI regulation (like an “AI bill of rights”) and more specific emphasis on automated decision-making in proposed bills. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gfff8cMS
