Artificial Intelligence and Data Protection in Tension

This report introduces artificial intelligence and some of the technologies enabled by it, as well as some of the challenges and tensions between artificial intelligence and existing data protection laws and principles.

The challenges to data protection presented by AI are frequently remarked on but are often addressed only at a surface level. There is an urgent need for a more nuanced, detailed understanding of the opportunities and the issues presented by AI and of practical ways of addressing these challenges, in terms of both legal compliance and ethical issues that AI raises. This paper seeks to get to the heart of the tensions between AI and data protection.
