Özet: Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are significantly transforming our individual lives, social life, and economy. Use of AI systems create advantages in numerous areas such as education, health and mobility for humanity at large. But at the same time, AI systems pose significant risks to human rights, rule of law and democracy, which are the three fundamental standards of the Council of Europe. In terms of human rights, the most valuable subject of society, weak and in need of protection, “child” is at the center of the risks that these systems may create. AI Systems surround the entire online life of these digital-born children in the games they play, the education they receive, and the platforms where they socialize and have fun. In order to protect children against AI systems that they cannot cope with with their own power, it is important to ensure that these systems are designed, developed and used “respectful to children's rights” and “child-centered”. Evaluating the risks that the algorithms may create in terms of these principles throughout its life cycle, using the “Child Rights Impact Assessment” (CRIA) method, taking the necessary measures to eliminate the findings of the impact analysis, and ensuring an effective protection in terms of children's rights by inspecting the AI systems throughout the entire life cycle, is necessary. Lastly, effective application of CRIA can bolster relevant rules and principles under the GDPR and play a vital role in showing compliance with the fairness principle and accountability duties.
