Artificial intelligence algorithms require big quantities of information. The strategies utilized to obtain this data have actually raised issues about privacy, surveillance and copyright.

AI-powered gadgets and services, such as virtual assistants and IoT products, constantly collect personal details, raising issues about intrusive information event and unauthorized gain access to by third parties. The loss of privacy is more intensified by AI's ability to process and integrate large amounts of information, possibly causing a security society where private activities are continuously kept track of and examined without sufficient safeguards or openness.

Sensitive user information collected may include online activity records, geolocation information, video, or audio. [204] For example, in order to construct speech recognition algorithms, Amazon has taped millions of personal conversations and enabled momentary employees to listen to and transcribe some of them. [205] Opinions about this prevalent surveillance 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 way to deliver important applications and have established numerous techniques that attempt to maintain privacy while still obtaining the information, such as information aggregation, de-identification and differential privacy. [207] Since 2016, some privacy experts, such as Cynthia Dwork, have actually begun to view personal privacy in terms of fairness. Brian Christian wrote that experts have rotated "from the concern of 'what they understand' to the question of 'what they're making with it'." [208]
Generative AI is often trained on unlicensed copyrighted works, including in domains such as images or computer system code
