AI AND GDPR Balancing Innovation with Privacy

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed industries by enabling automation, predictive analytics, and intelligent decision-making. However, this rapid advancement raises serious concerns about data privacy and ethical governance. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), introduced by the European Union, represents one of the most comprehensive legal frameworks aimed at protecting personal data. This paper explores the intersection of AI and GDPR, focusing on how organizations can balance technological innovation with privacy rights. It highlights key challenges such as data transparency, consent, algorithmic bias, and accountability, while also discussing strategies for achieving compliance without stifling innovation.
