The Law of Artificial Intelligence - Period 6

This course explores various ways AI technology is regulated by law and what role ethics play. The law that is being addressed is both the law specifically focusing on AI and other laws relevant to such systems-such as data protection law, intellectual property law, liability, and contract law. And, because the law naturally lags behind technological evolutions, ethics also plays a role.

After this course, the student will understand how the law regulates AI. They will also understand how to design AI systems compliant with the law and be protected by it. In short, students will learn about the law and how to benefit from it. This is a world-first.
