Center for AI and Digital Policy’s Post

📢 CAIDP Provides Comments to Civil Liberties Board on AI and Counterterrorism 🔥 CAIDP explained, "AI systems that claim to detect emotions, thoughts, or truthfulness from physical features, conversations, and expressions are pseudoscientific and discriminatory." 🔥 CAIDP also wrote, "The Board must exercise its oversight authority to ensure that rights-impacting AI systems are not deployed and entrenched in counter-terrorism and national security efforts." 🔥 Regarding a key advisory board, CAIDP said, "If DHS seeks to fairly evaluate public concerns of implementing AI systems into counterterrorism and national security efforts, the DHS should establish clear measures to address conflicts of interest that would arise from the corporate/industry members on its Board." CAIDP made several recommendations: 1️⃣ Prohibit pseudoscientific and human-rights violating techniques in counter-terrorism and national security AI systems 2️⃣ Establish safeguards in accordance with the OMB AI Guidance for AI systems used for counterterrorism and national security efforts 3️⃣ Address conflicts of interest for AI Safety and Security Board participants who also participate in the federal procurement process 4️⃣ Ensure that Generative AI systems are not considered critical infrastructure Merve Hickok Marc Rotenberg Christabel R.
