While states and terrorists have always used emerging technology in their endeavours, there has seldom been an emerging technology with the reach, implications, and possibilities of AI. In this masterful book, Vedaschi and Graziani skilfully merge law, computer science, psychology and more to provide the authoritative account of how AI enables terrorist actors, promises security, and challenges the rule of law. -- Fiona de Londras, University of Birmingham, UK This book provides important insights into the critical intersection of AI with counter-terrorism in democratic countries. Addressing the ways in which technology shapes both terrorism and counter-terrorism, the authors provide a fresh and distinctive take on the triangle of rights, counter-terrorism and AI. Technically proficient, insightful and thoughtful the book will be an asset to scholars and policy-makers. -- Fionnuala Nķ Aolįin KC (Hons), University of Minnesota Law School, USA, The Queens University of Belfast, UK and former UN Special Rapporteur on counter-terrorism and human rights (20172023) A truly important book for understanding, on a comparative legal basis, the complex interaction between law and technology in relation to the contrast of terrorism. -- Giorgio Resta, Roma Tre University, Italy
