Abstract

Terrorist crimes on virtual platforms have become a serious threat to security. In this context, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to identify and address these threats has become a key priority in the field of security. This technology plays an important role in identifying suspicious patterns and analyzing data, but it faces challenges such as privacy protection and accuracy in detection, which require responsible and balanced governance to overcome. Additionally, there are significant gaps in the legal frameworks and oversight mechanisms for AI governance, which need fundamental reforms. These gaps include the misalignment of laws with the rapid pace of technological advancement and the lack of legal frameworks for international cooperation. Therefore, the development of new laws in areas such as human rights, privacy protection, algorithmic transparency, and international collaboration is essential for effectively combating terrorist crimes, ensuring the appropriate use of AI, and safeguarding individual user rights.
