Deepfake Fight: Ai-Powered Disinformation And Perfidy Under The Geneva Conventions, David Nicholas Allen
Deepfake Fight: Ai-Powered Disinformation And Perfidy Under The Geneva Conventions, David Nicholas Allen
Notre Dame Journal on Emerging Technologies
Deception and disinformation are as much a part of the battlefield as bullets and bombs. However, just like with bullets and bombs, if the law does not properly regulate a capability’s use the capability could degrade faith in the law. In this respect, this paper examines deepfake technology, a modern artificial intelligence-based capability that can generate superficially-perfect yet wholly invented media content. The paper looks ahead to its potential future applications in armed conflict, processes the ways in which current law contemplates such deception, and distills recommendations for improving governance where needed.
In Defense Of (Virtuous) Autonomous Weapons, Don Howard
In Defense Of (Virtuous) Autonomous Weapons, Don Howard
Notre Dame Journal on Emerging Technologies
I will argue, we can construct effective means for norming the use of autonomous weapons short of a total ban by building upon the foundation of existing requirements stipulated in Article 36 of Protocol I to the Geneva Conventions that all new weapons technologies be reviewed for compliance with the International Law of Armed Conflict (ILOAC) and International Humanitarian Law (IHL). I begin with a critical review of several of the most commonly encountered arguments in favor of a ban. That is followed by a discussion of the moral opportunities afforded by enhanced autonomy. I conclude with a concrete policy …
Ethical Ai In American Policing, Elizabeth E. Joh
Ethical Ai In American Policing, Elizabeth E. Joh
Notre Dame Journal on Emerging Technologies
We know there are problems in the use of artificial intelligence in policing, but we don’t quite know what to do about them. One can also find many reports and white papers today offering principles for the responsible use of AI systems by the government, civil society organizations, and the private sector. Yet, largely missing from the current debate in the United States is a shared framework for thinking about the ethical and responsible use of AI that is specific to policing. There are many AI policy guidance documents now, but their value to the police is limited. Simply repeating …
Note: Regulating Artificial Intelligence: A Call For A United States Artificial Intelligence Agency, Noah John Kahekili Rosenberg
Note: Regulating Artificial Intelligence: A Call For A United States Artificial Intelligence Agency, Noah John Kahekili Rosenberg
Notre Dame Journal on Emerging Technologies
this Note draws upon two examples of emerging AI technologies that demonstrate the need for federal regulation: autonomous vehicles (i.e., self-driving cars) and algorithm-based hiring software. Part I illustrates the public safety concerns associated with AI technologies by outlining the inadequacy of existing laws and regulations on autonomous vehicles. Part II addresses the shortcomings of current regulations on algorithm-based hiring software and the issue of discrimination and inherent bias in AI. Part III recommends the creation of a new federal agency to guide AI regulation and enforcement.
The Power Of The "Internet Of Things" To Mislead And Manipulate Consumers: A Regulatory Challenge, Kate Tokeley
The Power Of The "Internet Of Things" To Mislead And Manipulate Consumers: A Regulatory Challenge, Kate Tokeley
Notre Dame Journal on Emerging Technologies
The “Internet of Things” revolution is on its way, and with it comes an unprecedented risk of unregulated misleading marketing and a dramatic increase in the power of personalized manipulative marketing. IoT is a term that refers to a growing network of internet-connected physical “smart” objects accumulating in our homes and cities. These include “smart” versions of traditional objects such as refrigerators, thermostats, watches, toys, light bulbs, cars, and Alexa-style digital assistants. The corporations who develop IoT are able to utilize a far greater depth of data than is possible from merely tracking our web browsing in regular online environments. …
