AI & Data Protection

 

Course Overview

AI systems create new opportunities for organisations to become more efficient and maximise profit, but as with all new technologies, they create risks. Data protection and AI are inextricably linked given the dependency that many AI systems have on personal data.

The EU is poised to implement a comprehensive regulatory framework, the Artificial Intelligence Act, which will signify the world's first coordinated legislative effort to harness the transformative power of AI while ensuring ethical standards and mitigating associated vulnerabilities.

Organisations need to understand and evaluate AI systems in order to implement them whilst ensuring compliance with both existing legal requirements, such as the GDPR, and upcoming legislation.

Data protection practitioners are well-equipped to leverage their existing skill sets to the use of AI systems as part of an organisation's overall governance strategy. Any organisation implementing an AI system will need to take various steps, including developing an AI governance framework and risk management practices.

This course provides delegates with a practical understanding and toolkit for day-to-day AI and data protection governance, focusing on:

  • The basic elements of an AI system
  • The interplay between AI principles and data protection principles
  • Obligations and considerations for deploying an AI system
  • Data protection roles and responsibilities in an AI system (controllers, joint controllers and processors)
  • AI generated data and data protection (training data, input data and output data)
  • Data subject rights
  • How to ensure the lawfulness of the processing
  • Recent regulatory trends in Europe, and their practical implications

The course is supported by materials which delegates can take away to implement into their existing data governance frameworks.

It is recommended that delegates attending this session have a solid basic knowledge of current data protection legal requirements. Delegates with no existing knowledge may find it helpful to attend Data Protection Essential Knowledge Level 1 before attending this training course.
