Young Lawyers' Committee (Lead)

Description

New technologies bring new challenges for the modern world and on how to apply the law. To update the legislation may provide a solution, but it takes time, and legislative process is never so fast as the development of upcoming technologies. To interpret the existent legislation is a better solution but depends on studied and experienced lawyers.

Key issues:

  • General legislation for artificial intelligence (AI): data privacy, consumer protection and liabilities.
  • Regulation of autonomous vehicles, passenger drones and other similar technologies for travel, entertainment, delivery of goods and other applications.
  • AI as law operator: what happens to ethics and human touch?
