Artificial Intelligence, Governance & The Law - Recent Developments & Best Practice

Introduction

AI technologies are being used across many industries, but as well as being a source of opportunity for businesses, they are also a source of risk.

The regulation of AI is becoming more sophisticated across many jurisdictions, and lawsuits concerning the use of AI are increasing.

This webinar will explore the nature of AI technology and the sources of risk, as well as developing legislation around the world. The session will conclude with practical tips and best practices.

The session will be presented by Jacob Turner of Fountain Court Chambers - a leading AI lawyer who has acted in some of the world’s most significant AI-related cases, including as counsel for Dr Thaler in the UK Supreme Court in Thaler v Comptroller-General of Patents (the ‘AI Inventor’ case), representing the claimants in Drivers v Uber and OLA Cabs (the ‘robo-firing’ case), R v Akrofi-Daniels, a Court of Appeal case concerning the use of an algorithm in the sentencing of a convicted drug dealer, and defending (successfully) the first company investigated by the UK data protection regulator for alleged AI bias.
