Privacy International (PI) has submitted a response to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) consultation on data subject rights (DSRs) and the training of generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) models.
PI's response outlines that, as things stand, the major Gen AI models are not capable of upholding individuals' rights under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and that such technologies must not be permitted merely for the sake of innovation. PI calls for the ICO to "adopt a stronger position than it has to date. Until companies developing generative AI offer adequate means for people to exercise their rights, they should not be allowed to distribute their models or offer services relying on those models."
