Hello Natalie,
I checked the ‘Informed Consent Guidance’ document and I have to say that
the document provides an idea that Artificial Intelligence has already
dominated human intelligence. I believe that this is not true – yes, there
has been much progress of the field of AI but definitely, it has not (yet)
overcome human intelligence. The world is indeed data-intensive (as the
document mentions), however AI does not govern all the aspects of such a
data-intensive world. The lack of clear regulations on how we should use AI
makes us suspicious on certain technologies. The document mentions that AI
algorithms act as ‘black-boxes’ – these algorithms have become
unpredictable and unexplainable (as the document mentions). That is not
true – we can intervene to the operation of such algorithms and we can
control them. There are programming languages (e.g. Python) with impressive
capabilities that allow us to modify these algorithms. Furthermore, the
document refers to the tracking of your behaviour on the WWW. Indeed,
digital marketing companies can track our behaviours on the Web and target
us with specific advertisements based on this behaviour, however there are
means for reducing if not eliminating this tracking.
I will also check the documents and provide you with further feedback.
