Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 December 2024
Debate
Data (Use and Access) Bill [HL]Contribution
“We recognise that there are benefits to be gained from Artificial Intelligence … Yet there are concerns. Data can be biased. Models can be wrong. The potential for discrimination and for deepening inequalities is known and significant. Important machine decisions can be wrong and unjust, and frequently Artificial Intelligence providers are unwilling or unable to address shortcomings … We respectfully ask that these clauses be re-examined to ensure that people are not simply subjected to life changing decisions made solely by machines, and forced to prove their innocence when machines get it wrong. The government should extend AI accountability, rather than reduce it, at this critical moment”.
