Risk Domain

AI systems that memorize and leak sensitive personal data or infer private information about individuals without their consent. Unexpected or unauthorized sharing of data and information can compromise user expectation of privacy, assist identity theft, or cause loss of confidential intellectual property.

"AI offers the temptation to abuse someone's personal data, for instance to build a profile of them to target advertisements more effectively."(p. 7)
