UNESCO Digital Library hosts the record for the 2024 publication titled "Artificial Intelligence and International Human Rights Law: Developing Standards for a Changing World," edited by Michał Balcerzak and Julia Kapelańska-Pręgowska. Published by Edward Elgar, this significant legal scholarship addresses the complex interplay between rapidly evolving artificial intelligence technologies and the established principles of international human rights law. The volume seeks to identify gaps in the current legal architecture and proposes new standards to ensure that AI development aligns with fundamental human rights protections.

The work delves into critical issues such as state responsibility for AI conduct, the potential for algorithmic systems to perpetrate human rights violations, and the necessity for robust legal frameworks to govern automated decision-making. By bringing together various legal perspectives, the book contributes to the ongoing global dialogue on how to adapt international law to the challenges posed by the digital age, emphasizing the need for proactive regulatory measures rather than reactive solutions.
