6) AI Safety, Security and Human Rights
Ensuring AI safety and security helps prevent misuse, protects sensitive data, and safeguards
systems against vulnerabilities. Upholding human rights within AI frameworks is vital for building
public trust and protecting individual freedoms, ensuring that AI technologies are used ethically
and responsibly.
Key considerations:
• Implement security protocols: Develop and enforce robust security protocols to protect AI
systems from cyber threats and unauthorized access, ensuring system integrity and data
protection.
• Conduct risk assessments: Regularly perform risk assessments to identify and address
potential safety and security problems in AI systems, mitigating risks before they impact
users.
• Align AI policies with human rights standards: Ensure AI policies and practices are in
line with international human rights standards, safeguarding individual freedoms and
promoting ethical use.
• Monitor human rights impacts: Continuously assess the impact of AI technologies on
human rights and take corrective actions to address any adverse effects, maintaining a
focus on ethical implications.
• Promote secure and ethical development practices: Encourage secure coding practices,
robust testing, and integration of human rights considerations into AI development and
education to foster safe and ethical AI technologies.
7) Public Awareness and Engagement
Building trust, ensuring transparency, and promoting responsible use of AI technologies are
crucial. By educating citizens and involving them in discussions, it fosters a more informed
and supportive public. Engaging diverse perspectives improves AI systems' inclusivity
and effectiveness, while also guiding policy development to align with societal values and
expectations.
Key considerations:
• Launch public education campaigns: Develop comprehensive educational campaigns
to inform the public about AI technologies, their benefits, potential risks, and how they
can impact daily life. Use various media channels to reach a broad audience and improve
understanding.
• Launch pilot programs: Educate citizens about the benefits of AI in public services by
launching pilot programs that showcase real-world applications of AI in areas like
healthcare, transportation, and social services. By directly exposing the public to the
tangible benefits of AI and involving them in its implementation, you can foster greater
acceptance, trust, and engagement with AI technologies.
• Host public forums and workshops: Organize forums, workshops, and town hall meetings
to engage citizens in discussions about AI strategy. These events allow the public to voice
concerns, ask questions, and provide feedback on AI policies and initiatives.
• Collaborate with community organizations: Partner with local community organizations
and advocacy groups to disseminate information and engage with diverse populations.
These organizations can help tailor communication strategies to different communities
and ensure broader outreach.
