From Colorado Law:

This panel explores the challenges of protecting the right to privacy in the context of the explosion of AI. The discussion will range from how privacy can and should be protected from a wide angle lens to more granular assessments. More specifically, the panelists will consider: the challenge of defining and protecting “sensitive” information; the need for data privacy protections tailored to marginalized groups to guard against exploitation, oversurveillance and political deception; the dangers of law enforcement’s use of facial recognition technology; and the efficacy of groundbreaking local laws that require impact assessments for algorithms used in hiring decisions.
