This analysis from Annie Dulka explores how AI applications in international human rights law are reshaping legal frameworks—from refugee protection and due‐process to surveillance governance. It outlines both innovative benefits (e.g., enhanced monitoring, rapid documentation) and legal risks (e.g., bias in asylum decisions, privacy violations), arguing that robust oversight and principled deployment are essential to align AI tools with international human rights norms. This matters significantly for legal professionals navigating cross-border AI use, as it offers a practical roadmap for integrating AI ethics into treaty interpretation, case law, and compliance mechanisms. Engaging and authoritative, the piece encourages lawyers and policymakers to proactively shape AI deployment in human rights contexts—making it a compelling entry-point for those advising on global AI governance.
