The Violent Use of Artificial Intelligence as Border Enforcement w/ Petra Molnar
The intersection of immigration, border enforcement, new technology and specifically artificial intelligence, is racing toward more intense and more violent border enforcement strategies that are fueled by problematic algorithms, that mostly replicate the social and economic systems of power and exclusion that western societies are rooted in. On today’s show, we’ll explore part of how exclusionary and violent border policies have been aided by artificial intelligence, not just in the US but around the world, and how, because policies are slower to develop than technology, artificial intelligence industries move these practices forward without regulation and in global concert among the world’s wealthier states. We’re joined by Petra Molnar, a lawyer and anthropologist specializing on the impacts of migration technologies. She co-runs the Refugee Law Lab at York University and the Migration and Technology Monitor, which funds community grounded projects on border tech. She’s also the author of the book that we’ll be discussing today, called “The Walls Have Eyes: Surviving Migration in the Age of Artificial Intelligence” Learn more about the book here: https://thenewpress.com/books/walls-have-eyes Check out Petra Molnar’s organization the Migration and Technology Monitor: https://www.migrationtechmonitor.com/ — Subscribe to this podcast: https://plinkhq.com/i/1637968343?to=page Get in touch: lawanddisorder@kpfa.org Follow us on socials @LawAndDis: https://twitter.com/LawAndDis; https://www.instagram.com/lawanddis/ The post The Violent Use of Artificial Intelligence as Border Enforcement w/ Petra Molnar appeared first on KPFA.
