Abstract: Artificial Intelligence itself, its increased development and expanded use in all dimensions of social life, tends to rise very complex questions on the interactions between humans and AI systems. AI, with its algorithms, seems to provide models of perfect conduct aiming perfect objectivity. But is this really possible or are we to fall in a hidden trap, ready to lose one of our most important human rights – the right to equality and nondiscrimination. Recent research had demonstrated that, despite careful programming, AI has generated situations of discriminatory labelling of certain social groups, in total opposition with our standards and goals. Can we prevent such results or the model of conduct imposed for AI is eventually going to fail?

Keywords: Artificial Intelligence (AI); human rights; non-discrimination; right to equality; bias; risk assessment.
