Thank you very much.
Professor Watkins, I noted that in a report called “Now you see me: Advancing data protection and privacy for Police Use of Facial Recognition in Canada” that “Danish liberal deputy Karen Melchior said during parliamentary debates that 'predictive profiling, AI risk assessment and automated decision-making systems are weapons of “math destruction”', because they are 'as dangerous to our democracy as nuclear bombs are for living creatures and life.'”
Given that kind of framing of “weapons of 'math destruction'”, you noted that there's going to be an important accountability in the private sector. I note that Amazon has just had its first unionization. Hopefully, there will be some discussions around this.
What safeguards should we be putting on the private sector to ensure that these “weapons of 'math destruction'” are not unleashed on the working class?
