Interesting article. I am surprised by the omission of “human rights” though. I understand “Atlas does not cover every AI policy topic” but HRs are foundational for AI policy…

Thanks Merve! Yes, indeed - it's designed to be illustrative vs comprehensive, but HR could certainly be there. Quick thought: one challenge is to what extent should we view HR as a standalone area of risk/benefit of AI, a governance mechanism, or a component of many different topics - privacy, fairness, bias and discrimination, perhaps even access to technology (at some point) etc.

I would argue HR as a main pillar - Risk / Benefit / Rights -based approaches.

Under it is the HR & civil rights regulations and protections; under which you would have right to privacy, non-discrimination, as well as right to access to information and right to science etc.

Would be more than happy to connect offline and discuss further if you like.
