The Impact Of Artificial Intelligence On Human Rights—The Link To Data

This talk discusses the potential use and harm of data surveillance in Southeast Asia from the economic, social and cultural rights as well as civil and political rights points of view. How do artificial intelligence applications impact human rights and what is the connection to the use (and misuse) of big data? In Southeast Asia are we more concerned about issues of data privacy, or exclusion and lack of access? This presentation addresses these questions and explores some current AI applications and governmental policies in the region.
