VISITING SCHOLARS PROGRAMME

E-Four and AAF in partnership with the Ehi Choya Moria Foundation, DSC Publications and AUU International welcomes scholars or groups of scholars who wish to collaborate on a specific project. While Visiting Scholars typically work on projects related to the institution's current programmes, a number of scholars whose research falls outside the institution's active programs also participate. These research projects, and other work conducted by the Visiting Scholars, constitute an important part of the firm's ongoing effort to analyze issues relating to the challenges to data mining, data protection, data security and data privacy, legal and ethical aspects of robotic technologies and Artificial Intelligence which are unique to advanced economies and emerging markets, and proffer solutions and recommendations which can effectively address these challenges. Research themes include:
- Artificial Intelligence and data privacy: challenges in finding the right balance
- AI and data mining problems
- Difficulty in quantifying and mitigating privacy risks of AI with personal data
- Difficulty in measuring and managing security risks of AI with personal data
- Corruption and its impact on the effectiveness of AI-enabled systems
- Challenges with accountability and trust in data privacy management of AI data
- Challenges in implementing anti-money laundering policies, procedures, and processes that are
adequate enough to support AI
- Insider fraud and its impact on the effectiveness of AI-enabled systems
- Culture of anti-money laundering compliance and its impact on the effectiveness of AI-enabled
systems
- The challenges in mapping out legal requirements to AI/IT controls
- The challenges in complying with data protection laws for AI
- The challenges of reforming intellectual property protection for AI-enabled software
- The challenges of reforming data protection for AI-enabled software
- The limitations of legal institutions for addressing cybercrime risks
- Economic implications of AI
- The challenges in tailoring legal protection for AI-enabled software
- Access barriers to big data
- Difficulty in designing a framework for robotics and AI regulation
- Legal, ethical, and societal implications of robotics and AI research and applications
- Barriers to conducting crime and criminal investigation in the clouds using AI
- Challenges in regulating robot and AI behavior by design
- Challenges in regulating new technologies powered by AI in times of change
- Constitutional rights and new technologies powered by AI
- Barriers to technology and AI regulations
- Insider attacks in cloud computing
- Difficulty in framing adequate guidelines for addressing legal and ethical issues of robotics and AI
- Difficulty in designing and implementing privacy regulations in the metaverse for data used to train
the AI Algorithm
- Ethical assessments of emerging technologies and AI
- Barriers to implementing guidelines on regulating robotics and AI
- Ethical, legal, and social issues of robotic technologies and AI

We are currently working on a major research topic entitled "Implementing Anti-Financial Crime Risk Control Measures Using Artificial Intelligence: Challenges for Advanced Economies and Emerging Markets."
