Targets: Artificial Intelligence has the potential to propel Sustainable Development Goals by enhancing actions in all fields covered by the SDGs. It can also pose fundamental risks and have unforeseen consequences such as the exacerbation of inequalities and negative impacts on individuals, communities, economies and the environment.
The Council of Europe methodology for the Risk and Impact Assessment of AI Systems on Human Rights, Democracy and Rule of Law enables public authorities and stakeholders to identify, address and mitigate risks posed by AI systems to human rights. In this sense, it is a powerful tool ensure AI is used in order to accelerate SDG achievement and acts as an enabler on the various targets.
Classroom
The session will be divided into two parts:
- A short discussion between the panelists organized by a moderator who will subsequently invite the online audience to ask them questions, including in the chat.
- A social gathering in the room aiming to bring together all participants in an informal, convivial setting, and to foster new connections to develop their network.
Full title of the session: "Risk and impact assessment of AI systems on human rights, democracy and the rule of law"
The Session will bring together various stakeholders having participated in the elaboration of the Council of Europe methodology for the Risk and Impact Assessment of AI Systems on Human Rights, Democracy and Rule of Law (HUDERIA).
The HUDERIA is a non-binding instrument supporting the implementation of the Council of Europe Framework on Artificial Intelligence and Human Rights, Democracy and the Rule of Law. It is intended to guide relevant stakeholders in establishing the procedures and mechanisms needed to identify such contexts and roles in which artificial intelligence systems, or combined technologies based on such systems, are likely to pose significant levels of risk to the enjoyment of human rights, the functioning of democracy and the observance of the rule of law, and help them manage the related risks. The HUDERIA is intended for voluntary use and freely available to all. It aims to foster trust in AI technologies and promote AI innovation while mitigating risk.
It will be divided into two parts:
- A short discussion between the panelists on the HUDERIA, the methodology for its preparation and the challenges associated with creating a one-of-a-kind, balanced technical standard addressing the risks posed by AI systems to human rights without stifling innovation.
- A social gathering aiming to bring together actors interested in the development of technical standards and risks assessments for digital technology with a particular focus on their impacts on human rights in an informal, convivial setting, and to foster connections between relevant stakeholders.
The session will be moderated by Mr David LESLIE, who was the consultant assisting the Committee on Artificial Intelligence in elaborating the HUDERIA.
