Abstract
AI is changing the world as we know it; along with it come several challenges, suchasuser privacy. Current privacy laws are ill-equipped to protect user privacy as new things like automated decision-making are introduced, which current privacy laws are not able to protect.
In this research paper,I am going to talk about AI and how it affects privacy and what laws need to be changed to ensure the confidentiality of the user is not affected by it, along with all current privacy laws like the DPDP Act and GDPR and their shortcomings when it comes to AI.
Also, all upcoming acts that are being passed or already passed for AI by different organisations in the world. Along with proposals that can be made to ensure user privacy is protected inchanging times.

Introduction
Recently, Denmark announced new laws to protect the faces of its citizens from AI by granting them the right to copyright their faces. This comes after numerous instances of people using AI to create deepfakes of others, including making a complete copy of their voice. There has been a significant rise in AI in our everyday lives, and it is being used for various purposes, including research, image generation, and many applications that now utilise AI to augment and create work.
This raises concerns among people about the right to privacy and whether they can protect their identity from AI and deepfakes. The right to privacy is a human right that is provided to everyone. It should be protected, but is it really possible in this era of AI, where generative software that feeds on data is constantly being used to create fake or morphed images without the consent of that person, these constant worry comes from the fact that AI constantly uses data to keep updated about current issues and data is always fed to AI and people have no idea from where that data comes from and whether these AI company have taken consent of people while training their AI from the data that is available. There is very little known about AI and how it is taught, and whether the data fed to AI is reliable without any bias.This paper examines the interplay between AI and privacy laws, analysing risks, limitations of current legal systems, and global efforts to regulate AI.
