The relevance of the topic is due to the development of artificial intelligence (AI), one of the most important technological trends of our time, which has a significant impact on human rights and various aspects of human life. AI is developing extremely fast. This creates new challenges for human rights that need to be addressed immediately. It is important to understand how technology can change our society and what measures should be taken to protect human rights.
The article explores the impact of AI development on human rights, emphasizing both positive and negative aspects of technological progress. The author analyzes how AI can threaten the right to privacy through the collecting and processing of large amounts of data, which can lead to a loss of control over personal information. The author considers the impact of AI on access to information, where algorithms can create information bubbles, limiting the variety of information received. Attention is drawn to possible restrictions on freedom of expression through algorithmic censorship of content, which may lead to restrictions on freedom of speech. The use of AI in the judicial system may affect the fairness of court decisions, especially if the algorithms have biases or errors. The author traces the impact of automation on the labor market and the risks of job losses and the need to find a balance between technological progress and employment. In the healthcare sector, AI can both improve diagnosis and treatment and create new challenges due to possible algorithmic errors and unequal access to medical technologies. In education, the use of AI opens up new opportunities but also creates barriers to access to knowledge, especially for vulnerable groups. The author emphasizes the importance of taking human rights into account in the context of climate risks. The author raises the issues of discrimination and restriction of freedom of movement due to biased algorithms.
The author emphasizes the need to develop regulatory mechanisms to protect human rights in the context of the rapid development of AI, ensuring a balance between innovation and human rights protection, and provides a number of clear recommendations.
