The more important question for me is how many people would it falsley flag on a daily basis if implemented by London Underground, for example? Some politician is bound to try and usher that through to "keep us all safe".

This all has to come to Parliament for proper debate, scrutiny and legislation imho.

Stop Automated Discrimination

We’ve found out that 3/4 of police forces across the UK are using technology to try to “predict crime” - and almost no one knows about it. But we’re trying to stop it. Sign the petition:

Open Rights Group Feb 20, 2025

Amnesty's new report shows that the police are supercharging racism through predictive policing.

At least 33 UK police forces have used prediction or profiling tools.

“These systems are developed and operated using data from policing and the criminal legal system. That data reflects the structural and institutional racism and discrimination in policing and the criminal legal system.”

Wie Rechte generative Ki für ihre Zwecke und Weltbilder nutzen

Echte Emotionen. Generative KI und rechte Weltbilder

Die radikale Rechte liebt generative KI. Trump wie Musk teilen massenhaft KI-generierte Bilder auf ihren Plattformen, und auch die AfD hat schon lange den Nutzen von Midjourney & Co. für ihren Wahlkampf erkannt. Dabei zeigt sich: Die Technologie ist kein politisch neutrales Werkzeug. Als Nostalgiemaschine und Klischeeverstärker drängt sie sich für den Entwurf rechter Weltbilder geradezu auf.

AI is rapidly expanding into all areas of public life.

Automated systems will be commonplace in making decisions that can entrench discrimination and inequality.

AI says NO: Tell Keir Starmer that people, not machines should oversee life-changing decisions

Clause 80 of the Government’s Data (Use and Access) Bill could strip away your right to decide whether people or machines make decisions that impact our lives. Big Tech and Whitehall are eager to cut costs by using AI algorithms to make crucial decisions about you. Soon, computers—not people—could determine the outcome of your benefit claims, job applications, or mortgage approvals. Right now, UK GDPR protects your right not to be simply subjected to life-changing decisions made solely by...

Automated decision-making exposes racialised communities to greater discrimination from algorithmic biases, as seen in recruitment.

The UK Data Use and Access Bill will expand the use of decisions made solely by AI without human review, so unfair practices could go unchallenged.

Il riconoscimento facciale ha tanti aspetti problematici - vedasi #CodedBias - ma finora aveva almeno escluso una parte vulnerabile e giustamente protetta della popolazione, i minorenni. Ora si scopre che, per addestrare meglio i propri algoritmi, il DHS (Department of Homeland Security) statunitense ha avviato da tempo la raccolta di immagini facciali di minori stranieri, inclusi infanti, anche non accompagnati, al confine col Messico

The US wants to use facial recognition to identify migrant children as they age

A previously unreported project is intended to improve how facial recognition algorithms track children over time.

"AI raises the stakes... data is not only used to make decisions about you, but rather to make deeply powerful inferences about people and communities."

Beware greater automated decision-making with fewer safeguards over our data.

The fight for algorithmic justice is imperiled by the #DataGrabBill.
