- Argentina plans to use AI to prevent cybercrime
- They are going to analyze historical data in depth
- Privacy and confidentiality issues remain unresolved
The Argentine government, represented by the Unit for Applied Artificial Intelligence for Security (UIAAS), plans to use AI to predict and prevent future cybercrime.
What Exactly Is UIAAS Proposing?
UIAAS will focus on identifying potential cyber threats through deep analysis of historical data and monitoring social media activity in real-time.
They envision this as a way to help introduce proactive cyber security measures and improve the efficiency of data sharing between police and security teams.
What Are the Pitfalls of This?
It expresses serious concerns about data privacy and user confidentiality, actively raising the growing questions of AI ethics every year.
Guided by ethical considerations, the U.S. previously investigated OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, regarding its security standards and employment practices.
And, the United Nations General Assembly recently approved a resolution on AI calling on countries to protect human rights and personal data.
Conclusions
AI’s technical development is far outpacing its regulatory frameworks and ethical standards.
As the release of each new model expands capabilities by multiples, it is each time beyond the very recently established norms that becomes a constant challenge.
Perhaps we should finally heed the loud statements of the key AI founders themselves about the urgency of developing a philosophical framework that covers all the prospects for AI technical development up front and specifies in advance what technical controls should be developed for future new capabilities.
