CONCLUSION
In conclusion, the ethical issues surrounding privacy in the age of AI are of utmost importance and
must be addressed.
Throughout this presentation, we have explored the various ways in which AI technologies can
infringe upon personal privacy.
From data collection and surveillance to algorithmic biases and the potential for misuse, these issues
have significant implications for individuals, society, and the future of AI.
It is crucial that we take proactive measures to ensure that privacy is protected and that AI is
developed and deployed in an ethical and responsible manner.
This includes implementing robust regulations, promoting transparency and accountability, and
fostering public awareness and engagement.
By addressing these ethical issues, we can strive towards a future where AI technologies coexist with
privacy and human rights, enabling the full potential of AI to be realized while safeguarding individual
autonomy and dignity.
