dc.description.abstract | This paper investigates the impact of the Right to Be Forgotten on AI-driven data retention
practices, with a particular emphasis on the legal background and implications in Sri Lanka. The study
investigates how the Right to Be Forgotten has influenced AI data retention policies, the legal context
around RTBF and AI in Sri Lanka, and the benefits and drawbacks of RTBF in the AI area. The major
goal is to get a thorough knowledge of the relationship between RTBF and AI, as well as to identify
the difficulties and potential for developing effective regulatory frameworks in Sri Lanka. The data
was gathered through a comparative document analysis. The study found that there is currently no
effective mechanism to remove data from AI systems, raising serious concerns about the possibility of
establishing the right to be forgotten in AI. Furthermore, it was determined that Sri Lanka lacks suitable
laws to handle the right to be forgotten and data privacy concerns associated with AI, revealing a
serious regulatory gap. Furthermore, the study identifies both the benefits and drawbacks of
implementing RTBF in AI. The paper concludes by emphasising the importance of balanced legislation
that protects privacy while promoting innovation. | en_US |
