Description:

The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) has generated an endless list of questions—not only for regulators and legal practitioners—but also for the entire world. This disruptive change is far from being solely a technical shift. In fact, it presents an opportunity for a deep ethical discussion about what AI can do (and must do) and what should be forbidden. Along these lines, different regulatory approaches are emerging, with many following a risk management approach already implemented in some data privacy statutes. 

The aim of this one-hour interactive webinar is to discuss these regulatory approaches, identify advantages and disadvantages, and explore areas for improvement. The dialogue among the panelists will provide the audience with an overview of the US, EU, and Brazilian attempts to regulate Artificial intelligence.

Professor Marco Antonio Loschiavo Leme de Barros, Assistant Professor and Researcher at Mackenzie Presbyterian University

Professor Pablo Iannello: Director of the Program in Law and Technology, University of Dayton School of Law

Growing more popular every day, the concept of smart contracts is intriguing. What are they and what is their legal validity? Are they easier to enforce than traditional contracts? When does a smart contract become binding on the parties involved? These are just some of the questions posed to law & tech practitioners on a regular basis.
