Abstract:
This contribution explores the complex intersection between Artificial Intelligence (AI) and human rights, highlighting the challenges and opportunities that arise as AI becomes increasingly prevalent in society. Beginning with a reference to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) of 1948 and its legal ramifications, the paper delves into how AI emulates human intelligence, impacting people’s lives and rights. The debate surrounding the need to adapt human rights protection laws to technological innovations is examined, with some authors advocating for legal changes, while others argue for an evolution of existing legislation. The literature review details various legal and ethical concerns related to AI, such as algorithmic transparency, discrimination, cybersecurity, privacy, and accountability. The contribution underscores the complex relationship between AI and human rights, identifying significant challenges that require careful analysis. This contribution seeks to contribute to the understanding of these evolving issues, emphasizing that the discussion is still in the exploratory stages in an increasingly technology-driven world intersecting with human rights.
