Emerging technologies and global nonhuman rights movements pose a stress test for the corpus of international human rights law (IHRL). On the one hand, technologies are being implemented quicker than policymakers can adopt regulations protecting humans from their potentially harmful effects. On the other hand, nonhuman rights movements are redefining who (or what) is entitled to moral and legal recognition. Are rights as we currently conceive of them up to the challenge of fostering a just society in light of these developments? The deployment of autonomous systems has primarily animated concerns about their impacts on civil and political rights like those pertaining to assembly, free speech, and privacy. Reports about artificial intelligence (AI) being used to identify protestors and chill freedom of expression serve as cases in point. But novel technologies also hold implications for second, third, and fourth generation human rights as well. For instance, news headlines about likely widespread job losses due to automation suggest an infringement upon the right to work and may require substantial investments in education for those affected by market forces. Perhaps more controversially, the advent of autonomous systems has generated discussions about whether or not rights should be extended to technological entities. The increasing presence of robots in classrooms, homes, and medical facilities will generate new social situations and conflicts that may be resolved through the proactive application of rights to a different class of subject. This conversation has occurred against a backdrop of parallel initiatives promoting the rights of other nonhumans, namely animals and nature. How might these developments influence the question of rights for AI? This chapter offers a refreshed look at these two sides of the rights coin with respect to autonomous systems. First, we review the philosophical foundations of rights. Second, we present methodological and critical insights regarding extant literature before using a two-step framework to systematically highlight less obvious ways in which emerging technologies like AI intersect with IHRL. Third, we explore the opportunities and challenges of extending rights to technological beings. We conclude with a call to enlarge the ontological scope of rights on theoretical and practical levels, and offer recommendations designed to assist in the governance of autonomous systems with an eye toward protecting the rights of human and nonhuman entities alike.
This book explores how international organizations have addressed the actual and potential human rights issues caused by AI technologies. Combining in-depth theoretical and doctrinal analysis with a pragmatic approach, it investigates vital questions on where accountability and responsibility for AI-related violations of human rights should lie. Expert contributors examine the evolution, strengths, weaknesses and loopholes of international guidelines and standard-setting initiatives for AI by the United Nations, Council of Europe and European Union. Chapters focus on key situations in which the use of AI raises human rights concerns, including AI-supported decision-making in healthcare, public administration and cases of asylum; the use of facial recognition software; and the creation of deepfakes. Ultimately, the book highlights the need to establish effective oversight systems and adaptable remedies to protect human rights as AI continues to develop. Demonstrating the significant implications of AI technology in all areas of human life, this book is a vital resource for academics and students of international human rights law and European law. It is also an important read for policymakers and professionals interested in data security and the utilization of AI-powered solutions.
This book focuses on the legal regulation, mainly from an international law perspective, of autonomous artificial intelligence systems, of their creations, as well as of the interaction of human and artificial intelligence. It examines critical questions regarding both the ontology of autonomous AI systems and the legal implications: what constitutes an autonomous AI system and what are its unique characteristics? How do they interact with humans? What would be the implications of combined artificial and human intelligence? It also explores potentially the most important questions: what are the implications of these developments for collective security –from both a state-centered and a human perspective, as well as for legal systems? Why is international law better positioned to make such determinations and to create a universal framework for this new type of legal personality? How can the matrix of obligations and rights of this new legal personality be construed and what would be the repercussions for the international community? In order to address these questions, the book discusses cognitive aspects embedded in the framework of law, offering insights based on both de lege lata and de lege ferenda perspectives.
The speed of technological development, from cell phones to artificial intelligence, opens up exciting new opportunities for promoting human flourishing. It also raises grave risks, threatening not only personal privacy and dignity but also our collective survival. Technologies of Human Rights Representation brings together three fields of research critical to securing our future: changing technologies, human rights, and representation. For each of these fields, this book asks key questions: How can we open the black box of technological advances so that we can more fully understand their effects upon our lives? What can we do to make sure that these effects align with the values of human rights? And how does the way we talk about technology and rights—from military reports and corporate marketing to human rights reports and poetry—amplify or diminish our capacity both to understand and to control what happens next? Contributors from anthropology, communications, criminology, global studies, law, literary and cultural studies, and women and gender studies bring diverse methodological approaches to these crucial questions.
This short, accessible book seeks to explore the future of work through the views and opinions of a range of expertise, encompassing economic, historical, technological, ethical and anthropological aspects of the debate. The transition to an automated society brings with it new challenges and a consideration for what has happened in the past; the editors of this book carefully steer the reader through future possibilities and policy outcomes, all the while recognising that whilst such a shift to a robotised society will be a gradual process, it is one that requires significant thought and consideration.
Artificial Intelligence may be the disruptive tech to influence our lives, but in the end, it has its own species to grow, so let us not take it as something we use and leave.Ê DESCRIPTION The book enters with its first chapter providing a simple and legal backdrop of the idea behind AI Ethics and International Law, its references and some important analogies and conceptual ideas.
