Biden AI order could lead to reforms in how federal agencies work with data brokers. Here's what you need to know: 1. The Biden administration's recent executive order on artificial intelligence includes a provision for a comprehensive review of federal data collection practices, particularly regarding commercially available information (CAI) that contains personally identifiable information, marking the first government-wide accounting of such practices. 2. The order demands increased scrutiny of data brokers and aims to establish guidelines on agencies' collection and usage of commercial data to reduce privacy risks, potentially revealing how agencies like law enforcement, immigration, and even health agencies gather data, and how such data may have been abused. 3. The executive order also ties in with how artificial intelligence collects and uses personal data. Misuse of such data by AI systems, which could result in false and damaging inferences, is considered a substantial risk. Therefore, the legislation is expected to influence AI best practices among federal and state law enforcement agencies.

From a business perspective, the fact that the UK has chosen to have a different set of criteria for US data transfers than the UK will lead to greater rather than lesser costs for business. Business will now need to determine whether data it has obtained about #EU residents under the UK-EU adequacy decision (itself somewhat flawed in my and other commentators’ opinion) can be transferred to the US. I cannot see why commercially the UK could not have adopted the same rules as in the EU-US transfer framework as that would have minimised the extra work for business. It seems that yet again, the political desire to do something different to show that the UK is not in the EU has countered the obvious logic in standard rules. At the present time #Scotland does not have its own rules. The Scottish Information Commissioner only deals with Freedom of Information.

Data Privacy Day 2024 Insights from IAPP 🔍   As we look back on Data Privacy Day, the IAPP - International Association of Privacy Professionals shares their take for the year ahead. 2024 is set to be a pivotal year with privacy and AI’s landscapes rapidly evolving. Here are some key takeaways from the event:     EU’s AI Act: Clarity or Confusion?   ✴ The EU AI Act is set to establish clear legal expectations for AI usage by companies. This is a big step towards responsible AI deployment ✴ Caroline Louveaux of Mastercard pointed out that while the Act is a positive move, it’s not a done deal yet and achieving the necessary consensus might require reforms ✴ Possible reforms could address the draft text's high-level and abstract nature, focusing on clarifying ‘explainability thresholds’, bias monitoring, and how organisations can balance conflicting AI interests   US AI Governance: A New Frontier   ✴ With states like Hawaii and Washington leading the charge, the speakers anticipate a surge in laws regulating AI, especially concerning governance and bias issues ✴ The AI Safety Institute is poised to make its mark, offering vital guidance for safe AI deployment. This will encompass insights from academia, privacy experts and government bodies ✴ Watch out for emerging government roles like the Chief AI Officer, a sign of the increasing focus on AI in data governance   US Privacy Legislation on the Rise   ✴ The momentum across state-specific privacy laws in the US is building. This trend is expected to gain more ground in 2024, reflecting a heightened focus on protecting personal data   🌐 Stay tuned to our page for more updates and discussions as we navigate these changes together. Will these predictions come to fruition? One thing is for certain – 2024 will be an exciting and busy year for the AI and Data Privacy!   #DataPrivacyDay #IAPP #PrivacyPredictions2024 #USPrivacyLaw #AIGovernance #EUAiAct #PrivacyTrends 🌐🔐💻
