Think Again: Freedom of Thought in the Age of Artificial Intelligence
As governments navigate the fast-evolving terrain of artificial intelligence (AI), including its integration in fields such as neurotechnology, a core but often overlooked right demands urgent attention: freedom of thought.
This brief examines the implications for freedom of thought of the new information ecosystem, as well as the potential impacts of AI-based neurotechnologies, which raise fundamental questions about the inviolability of individual mental autonomy. The policy brief also outlines recommendations for states to consider in upholding freedom of thought in the digital age.
