Artificial intelligence algorithms require large amounts of data. The methods used to obtain this data have actually raised issues about privacy, surveillance and copyright.

AI-powered devices and services, such as virtual assistants and IoT products, continuously collect individual details, raising issues about intrusive data event and unauthorized gain access to by third celebrations. The loss of privacy is additional intensified by AI's ability to procedure and integrate large quantities of information, possibly causing a security society where individual activities are continuously kept an eye on and evaluated without sufficient safeguards or openness.

Sensitive user data collected might consist of online activity records, geolocation data, video, or audio. [204] For instance, in order to develop speech recognition algorithms, Amazon has recorded millions of personal discussions and allowed short-lived employees to listen to and transcribe some of them. [205] Opinions about this prevalent security range from those who see it as a required evil to those for whom it is plainly dishonest and a violation of the right to privacy. [206]
AI designers argue that this is the only method to provide important applications and have actually established numerous strategies that try to maintain personal privacy while still obtaining the data, such as data aggregation, de-identification and differential personal privacy. [207] Since 2016, some personal privacy professionals, such as Cynthia Dwork, have actually started to view personal privacy in regards to fairness. Brian Christian wrote that professionals have rotated "from the question of 'what they know' to the question of 'what they're making with it'." [208]
