There is a convergence on the protection of the traditional right to privacy and today’s right to data protection as evidenced by judicial rulings. However, there are still distinct differences among the jurisdictions based on how personal data is conceived (as a personality or proprietary right) and on the aims of the regulation. These have implications for how the use of AI will impact the laws of US and EU. Nevertheless, there are some regulatory convergences between US and EU law in terms of the realignment of traditional rights through data-driven technologies, the convergence between data protection safeguards and consumer law, and the dynamics of legal transplantation and reception in data protection and consumer law.
