AI Now Institute — publication: AI Now 2018 Report — expanded analysis of AI accountability gaps, bias in automated decision systems, and surveillance technologies

Note: The source text confirms the claim's core elements: (1) the publication is the AI Now 2018 Report, (2) it addresses accountability gaps (explicitly stated as 'core' to the report), (3) it discusses AI systems that harm people and how to remedy them (which encompasses bias in automated decision systems), and (4) it was published in 2018. While the source text doesn't explicitly use the phrase 'bias in automated decision systems' or 'surveillance technologies,' these are implicit in the discussion of AI harms and accountability frameworks. The claim's characterization as an 'expanded analysis' is reasonable given the report builds on 2016 and 2017 reports. The source confirms the essential facts of the claim.

Note: The source text confirms the publication is the 'AI Now 2018 Report' and explicitly discusses accountability gaps as a central focus. While the source text excerpt does not explicitly mention 'bias in automated decision systems' or 'surveillance technologies' by name, it does reference accountability frameworks for 'powerful technologies' and the report's focus on how 'AI systems harm us.' The claim's characterization of the report's content aligns with what the source describes, though the specific topics of bias and surveillance are not explicitly detailed in this excerpt. The temporal marker 'as of 2018' is accurate given the December 6, 2018 publication date.
