When it comes to AI tools, we need to demand that companies do a human rights impact assessment when they design, roll out and market them. [...] Artificial intelligence is a technological tool and it needs to be developed on the basis of risk assessments. Technological tools are used to exercise power, for good but also for bad, so we need to make sure that there is a framework within which they are developed, designed and used, and that's where human rights come in.
