Abstract

Over the decades, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning has become a transformative solution in many sectors, services, and technology platforms in a wide range of applications, such as in smart healthcare, financial, political, and surveillance systems. In such applications, a large amount of data is generated about diverse aspects of our life. Although utilizing AI in real-world applications provides numerous opportunities for societies and industries, it raises concerns regarding data privacy. Data used in an AI system are cleaned, integrated, and processed throughout the AI life cycle. Each of these stages can introduce unique threats to individual’s privacy and have an impact on ethical processing and protection of data. In this paper, we examine privacy risks in different phases of the AI life cycle and review the existing privacy-enhancing solutions. We introduce four different categories of privacy risk, including (i) risk of identification, (ii) risk of making an inaccurate decision, (iii) risk of non-transparency in AI systems, and (iv) risk of non-compliance with privacy regulations and best practices. We then examined the potential privacy risks in each AI life cycle phase, evaluated concerns, and reviewed privacy-enhancing technologies, requirements, and process solutions to countermeasure these risks. We also reviewed some of the existing privacy protection policies and the need for compliance with available privacy regulations in AI-based systems. The main contribution of this survey is examining privacy challenges and solutions, including technology, process, and privacy legislation in the entire AI life cycle. In each phase of the AI life cycle, open challenges have been identified.

  • Interoperability gaps between metadata schemas amplify the problem and prevent reliable cross-platform attribution checks.

    “Interoperability gaps between metadata schemas amplify this problem and prevent reliable crossplatform attribution checks [23].”

    From Designing automated audit mechanisms to evaluate compliance of generative AI platforms with federal authorship and ownership disclosure requirements. (2023) · cites this paper as [23]

    The Data Collection and Data Preparation sections (pages unavailable) say that standardized metadata and semantic interoperability help systems use data from different sources. They do not discuss gaps between metadata schemas or say that such gaps prevent reliable cross-platform attribution checks. (LLM, conf=0.83)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Adversarial provenance manipulations may occur at any step from local export to platform ingestion, making detection dependent on verification systems that monitor cryptographic continuity or sequential integrity signatures.

    “Such manipulations may occur at any step-from local export to platform ingestion-making detection dependent on verification systems that monitor cryptographic continuity or sequential integrity signatures [23].”

    From Designing automated audit mechanisms to evaluate compliance of generative AI platforms with federal authorship and ownership disclosure requirements. (2023) · cites this paper as [23]

    The Data Collection section (page unavailable) says attacks can target stored data or data moving between platforms, supporting the general point that manipulation can occur at different stages of transfer. It does not discuss provenance manipulation from local export to platform ingestion, or detection through cryptographic continuity or sequential integrity signatures. (LLM, conf=0.78)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Classification of creative production modes hinges on the degree of human agency and the interpretive relevance of human intervention across the workflow.

    “Classification hinges on the degree of human agency and the interpretive relevance of human intervention across the workflow [23].”

    From Designing automated audit mechanisms to evaluate compliance of generative AI platforms with federal authorship and ownership disclosure requirements. (2023) · cites this paper as [23]

    The paper’s section on non-transparent AI discusses decisions made without human involvement and the interpretability of automated decisions; its Model Development section discusses human supervision of AI training. Neither addresses classifying creative production modes by human agency or the interpretive relevance of intervention across a creative workflow. Searches for those concepts found no supporting passage; page numbers were not available in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.76)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
