- Standalone generative AI systems often rely on unlawful web scraping for data, conflicting with international human rights law (IHRL).
- These AI systems abuse privacy rights by design through mass invasions of privacy during data collection and model training.
- They enable discrimination and threaten freedoms of expression and thought, despite promises of automation and efficiency.
- Amnesty International finds such systems fundamentally incompatible with IHRL and is calling for their prohibition.
