Artificial intelligence algorithms need large quantities of data. The methods utilized to obtain this information have raised concerns about privacy, monitoring and copyright.

AI-powered devices and services, such as virtual assistants and IoT products, constantly collect individual details, raising concerns about intrusive data event and unauthorized gain access to by 3rd parties. The loss of privacy is additional worsened by AI's ability to process and combine vast quantities of information, possibly causing a surveillance society where specific activities are continuously monitored and examined without sufficient safeguards or openness.

Sensitive user data collected may consist of online activity records, geolocation information, video, or audio. [204] For instance, in order to construct speech acknowledgment algorithms, Amazon has tape-recorded millions of personal discussions and allowed momentary employees to listen to and transcribe a few of them. [205] Opinions about this extensive security variety from those who see it as a required evil to those for whom it is plainly unethical and a violation of the right to privacy. [206]
AI designers argue that this is the only method to deliver valuable applications and have established a number of strategies that attempt to maintain personal privacy while still obtaining the information, such as information aggregation, de-identification and differential personal privacy. [207] Since 2016, some personal privacy professionals, such as Cynthia Dwork, have actually started to see privacy in terms of fairness. Brian Christian wrote that professionals have actually rotated "from the concern of 'what they understand' to the question of 'what they're finishing with it'." [208]
