Standalone generative AI systems that rely on unlawful web scraping and mass privacy invasions are fundamentally incompatible with International Human Rights Law.

Hot diggity dog. The briefing concludes that standalone generative AI systems, based on unlawful web scraping, depend on mass invasions of privacy by design, and are fundamentally incompatible with [International Human Rights Law]. As such, Amnesty International is calling for a prohibition of such systems, including where such systems are identified as exacerbating existing inequalities or creating new forms of discrimination. https://www.amnesty.org/en/documents/pol40/0996/2026/en/

“The briefing concludes that standalone generative AI systems, based on unlawful web scraping, depend on mass invasions of privacy by design, and are fundamentally incompatible with [international human rights law]. As such, Amnesty International is calling for a prohibition of such systems, including where such systems are identified as exacerbating existing inequalities or creating new forms of discrimination. Amnesty International’s analysis and conclusions demonstrate the urgent need to address the most harmful practices among AI companies, where disregard for international human rights standards has enabled the sector to spin-out high-risk products at the expense of personal data, equality and non-discrimination, labour conditions, environmental considerations, and cognitive health. Sophisticated data-intensive technologies, often labelled under “AI”, do not need to be built on harmful practices such as unlawful web scraping. … This is particularly urgent at a time when AI infrastructure is expanding rapidly across all parts of the supply chain. In this context, Amnesty International sees it as critical to bring a robust human rights analysis to this expansion, in order to prevent extractive practices from becoming entrenched in the development and deployment of AI systems.” https://www.amnesty.org/en/documents/pol40/0996/2026/en/
