The UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) has introduced a strategy focusing on artificial intelligence and biometrics to foster innovation while safeguarding personal data rights. The strategy targets high-risk technology applications such as automated decision-making in recruitment and public services, and police use of facial recognition. Measures include audits, guidance on lawful data use, consultations on administrative profiling updates, and creating a code of practice for AI. Emphasizing public trust, the ICO addresses concerns over transparency, bias, and user rights, reinforcing the need for responsible data handling.
"Public trust is not threatened by new technologies themselves, but by reckless applications of these technologies outside of the necessary guardrails."
