In the world of artificial intelligence (AI), Amnesty International’s Secretary General, Kumi Naidoo, has discarded the ongoing debate between AI innovation and regulation, terming it as a ‘false dichotomy’. Naidoo believes that the human rights sphere should not be seen as an obstacle to progress in AI. Instead, he urges tech companies to steer AI development in a direction that prioritizes human rights, so that the technology can be used to the advantage of humanity, rather than posing threats to it. The primary concern should be to ensure that AI technology adheres to human rights standards, and does not compromise them in any way.
