City of Dallas calls IT protocols ‘inadequate’ in 131-page report on police data loss
Ryan Osborne reports:
Dallas’ city information technology department sent a 131-page report to city council on Thursday, detailing the massive data loss involving police records earlier this year and attributing the issue to “inadequate” protocols among IT staff.
The report confirmed that 22 terabytes of data, involving more than 8 million records, were deleted in the loss, which happened in March.
About 14 terabytes were recovered, but the rest was permanently lost.

Vermont Supreme Court Rejects Traffic Stop by Border Agents For Driving While Nervous
Richard Diamond reports:
Federal agents do not have the ability to conduct a traffic stop in Vermont that violates the state constitution, the state Supreme Court ruled last week. A Customs and Border Patrol agent had set up in a hidden spot near the Canadian border on August 12, 2018, when the car belonging to Phillip Walker-Brazie and Brandi-Lena Butterfield, US citizens who were on their way home to Richford on Route 105, drove past.
Border Patrol agent Jeffery Vining said that he saw the car slow down as if it had planned to turn, but instead it continued straight while the driver looked in the rear view mirror as the agent followed. The agent explained that he considered Butterfield’s mirror-checking to be a nervous attempt to “avoid being stopped.” So, he conducted a traffic stop.

That darned GDPR turns up everywhere.
The GDPR So Far: Implications for Information Governance, eDiscovery, and Privacy by Design
The GDPR is a ground-breaking data privacy law which will continue to have long-term impacts on how companies manage the digital rights of EU data subjects around the world. Although the GDPR is an EU data privacy law, robust and continued compliance will have a future global impact on most technology data design, data governance mechanisms, and how electronic evidence is managed in legal matters going forward, with privacy in mind.
This chapter will explore how the GDPR could affect handling electronic evidence with emerging technologies such as machine learning (ML), artificial intelligence (AI), and the internet of things (IoT). New models of data governance must be developed and continually updated to meet and even anticipate technological innovations that may cause data privacy concerns. Also, this chapter will detail the practical and design changes needed for legal applications that handle electronic evidence to better address ongoing compliance challenges in a post GDPR world. Last, this chapter will explore the current trends and cases creating new legal precedents with GDPR most likely to influence future data privacy by design.

SAFEGUARDING HUMAN RIGHTS IN THE AGE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: THE LEGAL PERSPECTIVE
Artificial intelligence is everywhere today. Its development, deployment and use is growing rapidly, not only contributing to the global economy but also raising some legal and human rights issues. The paper argues that, while some artificial intelligent robots such as autonomous vehicles are already available, their intelligence, through constant advancement in technology, will skyrocket in the near future. This, in line with scientific prediction, might eventually reach and even surpass human intelligence. The era of artificial intelligence is enabling symbiotic relationship between humans and artificial agents like robots and will ultimately lead to a civilizational change fomenting legal questions on citizenship, consciousness, rights and legal entity of these agents. This work concludes that as artificial intelligence continues to increase as part of our daily lives, its propensity to interfere with human rights gets more severe. The paper recommends proactive action in adopting necessary safeguards through policy initiation, political and legal frameworks to regulate the development, use and application of artificial intelligence in ways to guarantee continued protection of human rights in artificial intelligence-driven society.

AI based Robotics - Ethics, Safety and Hackings
This article covers the areas of ethics and safety concerns for the growing field of Robotics which use Artificial Intelligence to pursue its tasks. The article covers various kinds of threats AI based Robots may pose to humans and environment. Further, ethical issues and hacking of an AI based Robot and its potential side-effects are discussed. Concluding remarks of what is suggestive to such a problem are proposed herein one among which is inclusion of a law book for entities occupying human like spaces viz. Robots.
Who is required to comply, the humans or the AI? How would you enforce a law targeting AI?
Brazil lawmakers approve bill regulating artificial intelligence
Brazil’s House of Representatives has approved a bill that sets out legal regulations for artificial intelligence (AI).
Bill No. 21/20 outlines guidelines to develop and utilize AI in Brazil. The bill will regulate transparency regarding the use of AI in the public sector, promote the creation of AI for the public sector, and require the “adoption of regulatory instruments that promote innovation.”
So here is a lawyer telling us that we will always need lawyers? That’s not what my AI says…

Technology and innovation special edition: Ethics: Legal ethics and AI
Legal ethics will continue to be challenged by the rapid advance of artificial intelligence. Moral judgment will always be needed by lawyers when faced with questions about ethical obligations in practice. This cannot be replaced by AI.
Perspective. ...maybe.
Microbes, Natural Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence
Humanity’s greatest achievement might be building our successors
… Decades from now, AI systems might outsmart us. At that time, caution will be required. If AI systems will qualify for tenure at prestigious universities, their tenure might last for a very long time.
