I wonder what this says about AI in the future, since you can imagine that as AI becomes more powerful, it starts to make inferences that aren't explicit, and discovers connections that aren't obvious. In some cases, those connections will be wrong, in others, they will be right, but whether or not harm comes from inferred facts, it'll be hard to make a system aware of it and foolproof, as even human beings can't yet do this.
And how would this be tested in court? If a human being and a machine can both "read between the lines", a human has the right to publish a blog article about his investigation, but a machine cannot? If the conclusions are 100% fact and not slander/libel, what does this mean for free speech?
It seems to me some kind of global blacklist would be needed for these protected individuals, that courts could update, but then we'd have to be on guard about abuse of these, both from hackers, and also governments (e.g. let's add Paul Manafort to the blacklist) using them beyond the intended purpose.

That's why we should invest more in AI interpretability. I heard some famous researchers saying that it's not important, but for these reasons it actually is.
