Description

As artificial intelligence (AI) technologies rapidly evolve, regulatory frameworks struggle to keep pace whist countries are recognising the need to strike a balance between fostering innovation and ensuring ethical practices. For example, AI has been transforming medical diagnosis but at the same time raising concerns as to the protection of patients' sensitive personal data. This session will explore the current and emerging regulations governing AI, from national policies to global initiatives. We will examine key legal challenges, such as liability, ethical considerations, fundamental rights, and data privacy, while providing insights into how businesses and legal practitioners can stay compliant in this fast-changing landscape.
