The use of AI raises significant privacy and liability concerns, including risks like data breaches, surveillance, and manipulated media, as well as challenges in ensuring accountability for harm caused by AI systems. Comprehensive federal privacy legislation, targeted laws for specific issues, and focusing liability on AI operators rather than developers are proposed to address these concerns. Further research into privacy- and security-enhancing technologies is recommended to mitigate risks while supporting innovation and consumer protection.
