Abstract

The chapter examines the complex ties among privacy, surveillance, and public safety in today's world of AI-driven governance. The chapter will further examine what happens when a data-driven decision-making process works without transparency in Nigeria. Historically, those in authority have had an easier time keeping power when the decision-making process is hidden from the citizens. It will outline compelling strategies for mitigating the privacy risks that come with using AI in law enforcement, such as strong democratic oversight, the use of AI in a “data minimized” way, and the design of AI systems that ensures privacy is maximized. The chapter concludes by arguing that these strategies—and the informed, equitable future they make possible—are better than the alternative: a society governed by AI systems that infringe on individual rights and are not safe or secure.
