Artificial intelligence algorithms require big amounts of data. The techniques used to obtain this data have raised concerns about personal privacy, security and copyright.

AI-powered gadgets and services, such as virtual assistants and IoT items, continually gather personal details, raising issues about intrusive data gathering and unauthorized gain access to by 3rd parties. The loss of personal privacy is more exacerbated by AI's ability to process and integrate huge amounts of information, possibly leading to a security society where specific activities are constantly kept track of and examined without adequate safeguards or transparency.

Sensitive user information collected might consist of online activity records, geolocation data, video, or audio. [204] For instance, in order to develop speech acknowledgment algorithms, Amazon has actually recorded countless personal discussions and permitted momentary employees to listen to and transcribe a few of them. [205] Opinions about this prevalent security variety from those who see it as a necessary evil to those for whom it is plainly dishonest and a violation of the right to privacy. [206]
AI developers argue that this is the only way to provide important applications and have developed a number of techniques that attempt to maintain privacy while still obtaining the data, such as information aggregation, de-identification and differential privacy. [207] Since 2016, some privacy professionals, such as Cynthia Dwork, have actually begun to view privacy in regards to fairness. Brian Christian composed that professionals have pivoted "from the question of 'what they know' to the concern of 'what they're making with it'." [208]
