As Artificial Intelligence (AI) evolves, it presents itself with the ability to use personal information in ways that can intrude on the privacy interests of data subjects. The increase in the use of AI technology has meant that personal data is now everywhere.

AI applications can put data privacy at risk. The benefits of AI are well known but the risks and challenges often go unanalysed in applications.

The addition of the right tools to address privacy for data being used by AI systems is an important early step in adding trust into the AI equation. John Ghent, CEO and Co-founder of PrivacyEngine and Mike Morrissey, co-founder and CISO, discuss the impact that AI has had on global data privacy landscape and some approaches on how to deal with these challenges.

We will briefly step through some of the features of PrivacyEngine and show a privacy management platform can help.
