Draft law to allow authorities to use AI in asylum applications

The article reports on a proposed law in Germany allowing authorities to use artificial intelligence in processing asylum and visa applications. The draft legislation, known as the KI-Migrationsverwaltungsgesetz (KIMVG), aims to create a data protection framework for AI systems used in migration administration. It grants authorities like the Federal Agency for Migration and Refugees the legal authority to use collected application data to train and test AI models, and to analyze completed procedures across files to gain insights into decision-making structures. The goal is to speed up administrative processes by enabling automated internet checks against publicly available data, though final decisions will remain in human hands. The proposal follows rising application numbers and limited personnel capacity.
