Abstract: The use of artificial intelligence (AI) to produce decisions about individuals can result in discrimination. Despite the fact that the employment of AI as part of the decision-making process is growing in the United Kingdom, there is limited literature examining gaps in legal protection in the Equality Act 2010 that the employment of AI gives rise to. This article identifies what assumptions contained within a number of provisions of the Equality Act 2010 result in this legislation having gaps in legal protection in the context of the use of AI. It proposes a number of solutions. Keywords: Equality Act 2010; discrimination; artificial intelligence; digital; algorithmic; decision-making.
