The Oslo municipality has banned Meta's AI-enabled smart glasses in all schools during school hours, citing risks of covert data collection and facial recognition that could violate children's privacy. The ban is a preventive measure to protect students from potential harm posed by these AI systems.[AI generated]
Why's our monitor labelling this an incident or hazard?
The event involves AI systems embedded in smart glasses used in schools. The municipality's ban is a response to the potential for these AI systems to infringe on privacy and collect data without consent, which could lead to violations of rights and harm to individuals. Since no actual harm has been reported yet, but the risk is credible and plausible, this qualifies as an AI Hazard. The event is not an AI Incident because no realized harm is described, nor is it Complementary Information or Beneficial Use. Therefore, the classification is AI Hazard.[AI generated]
