United States of AI Ethical Policy - Our Bodies, Our Data: Reproductive Rights in the Age of AI

A Civic Brief from Future in Common

Part of the series: “The United States of AI: An Ethical Policy Platform for American Workers”

Suggested Price: Pay What You Can ($5+ recommended)

What This Brief Covers:

From fertility tracking apps to predictive policing, AI is quietly reshaping how our bodies are surveilled, categorized, and controlled—especially when it comes to reproductive autonomy.

This civic brief explores how artificial intelligence intersects with reproductive rights, privacy, and bodily sovereignty. With abortion access under threat and digital surveillance on the rise, the fight for freedom is also a fight for data dignity.

What You’ll Learn:

• How AI and big data are used to monitor reproductive behavior

• The risks of data misuse for people seeking care or support

• What tech-informed, rights-based reproductive policy could look like

• How voters, advocates, and lawmakers can protect privacy and autonomy

Who It’s For:

• Reproductive justice advocates

• Privacy and civil rights organizations

• Educators, students, and healthcare professionals

• Anyone concerned with AI, surveillance, and bodily autonomy

Why It Matters:

Reproductive freedom depends on the right to make choices—without fear, coercion, or digital surveillance. In the age of AI, defending our rights means defending the data trails our bodies leave behind. This brief makes the case for a future where technology serves, not controls, human dignity.
