Personalization or Data Privacy Risk?
Artificial intelligence is transforming how we work – from automated customer support to predictive HR tools and personalized marketing. But the more data an AI system uses, the greater the risk if transparency is lacking.
The GDPR exists to give individuals control over their data. However, AI systems often act like black boxes: it’s not always clear how a decision is made or what data the model relies on.
Real Problem – Real Risk
An HR department adopted an AI-powered recruiting tool that automatically ranks applicants. Recruiters couldn’t explain what criteria the system used, or whether it processed sensitive information such as age, gender, or ethnicity. This raises both ethical and regulatory concerns.
How Microsoft Helps
Microsoft offers a suite of tools for responsible AI governance:
- Microsoft Purview: A comprehensive data governance platform that maps and classifies data usage across an organization, revealing how and where sensitive data is stored.
- Responsible AI Framework: Microsoft's AI models are built to ensure transparency, mitigate bias, and maintain human oversight.
- Zero Trust security: Every user, device, and data interaction is treated as untrusted by default – with strict access controls and logs.
Everyday Scenarios – Major Implications
- A customer support chatbot scans emails to suggest responses. But does it also process sensitive health data? Purview makes this instantly visible.
- A marketing team sends personalized offers, but it’s unclear where targeting data originates. A Zero Trust model allows full control and traceability.
