Artificial Intelligence and Human Trafficking – OSCE & Bali Process Regional Support Office Policy Brief on the use of AI to Facilitate Trafficking in Persons
06/11/2024

The OSCE and the Bali Process Regional Support Office launched a Policy Paper in Vienna on November 1, 2024, from 9 to 12. This policy brief addressed the use of generative AI in human

trafficking. It highlighted traffickers’ use of AI to bypass cultural and language barriers, automate recruitment, and reach victims on a larger scale.

On a personal level, the Ambassador to monitor and combat trafficking in persons thinks a more robust approach is needed to prevent and combat the use of AI in human trafficking in two ways:

– Utilizing all existing national, regional, and international human rights and refugee law instruments.

– Supporting the adoption of new instruments to control the development and use of AI so that fundamental human rights are respected.
