To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they have taken to ensure that existing web protocols designed to prevent unauthorised access to personal data are widely known and easily navigable for both individuals and organisations.
To ask His Majesty's Government what measures they have implemented to address the challenges individuals may face in opting out of large language models accessing their personal data, particularly considering any complexity and difficulty of navigating existing protocols.
To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to introduce measures to encourage companies using large language models to adopt easily accessible machine-readable opt-in mechanisms to obtain consent from data subjects.
To ask His Majesty's Government whether they plan to implement regulations mandating AI developers to incorporate web protocols aimed at preventing large language models from accessing personal data without obtaining prior consent.
The UK’s existing Data Protection Framework requires organisations, including those developing AI technologies such as Large Language Models, to comply with UK data protection principles on lawfulness, fairness and transparency.
This includes requirements to make sure that processing personal data is ‘necessary’ for the intended purposes, carried out in a way that people would reasonably expect, and that data subjects are informed about processing and able to exercise their rights.
The Information Commissioner’s Office has updated guidance on how data protection laws apply to AI systems that process personal data to include fairness across the AI lifecycle.
