(In)Equality for All! AI and Social Justice: Creating Incentives for a Better Future

Society is in crisis. The gap between the poor and the rich – whether in terms of age, income or skills – keeps widening as inequality grows markedly. Artificial Intelligence (AI) holds great potential for improvement. While AI is often viewed as a threat to social justice, AI technology poses an opportunity to end inequality once and for good. From transportation, healthcare, agriculture to sustainably and governance - the positive applications of AI are unlimited in scope. Drawing on from experience in other legal fields, such as intellectual property (IP) law, privacy, and corporate law, I call for a new incentive-based legal policy to make AI accessible for all. I suggest implanting equality by design, a legal framework that is based upon existing effective mechanisms to incentivize entities to harness AI advantages for the better good. My proposal is threefold: Firstly, creating legal safe harbours for entities that employ just processing systems and subject algorithms, predictions and decision-making processes for ongoing scrutiny. Secondly, creating IP/data protection mechanisms to ensure the interoperability of data and fair licensing; this category utilizes traditional IP ownership incentives while acknowledging key exceptions for access and compatibility. Thirdly, establishing new corporate social responsibility (CSR) business practices that proliferate data sharing of non-identifiable information for social purposes. Under the suggested framework, corporations are not only obligated for fair, non-discriminatory, non-intrusive and transparent processing but are incentivized to spread and distribute AI technologies, to share non-identifiable data for research purposes, and to ensure the interoperability of AI systems.
