Benefits and risks of AI and other emerging technologies in anti-corruption and integrity

Abstract

A growing number of countries have been deploying anti-corruption tools based on emerging technologies to fight corruption and improve integrity. Although we know that Artificial Intelligence (AI), blockchain, natural language processing, big data analytics, satellite imagery, digital crowdsourcing, and whistleblowing platforms, just to name a few, are already being used to prevent or detect potential corruption cases, we still lack in-depth knowledge on the benefits and perils of these applications. This panel aims to contribuite to this debate bringing together theoretical and empirical papers that discuss the application of anti-corruption emerging techs, their potentialities, and the risks of creating new forms of corruption within this brave new world.
