SUMMARY:AI Governance: Its Discontents, Challenges, and Opportunities
UID:www.birmingham.ac.uk/207807
DESCRIPTION:A guest lecture by Professor Roger Brownsword\n
 The EU has done it again. Already dubbed as ‘the spiritual successor of the GDPR’, the EU AI Act introduces the first comprehensive legal regulation of AI in the world- an area that is still a subject of soft regulation as exemplified by the UK White Paper on a pro-innovation approach ( The Bletchley Declaration).  While the UK has not chosen to go the EU way for now, it is to be seen whether it remains immune from the ‘Brussels Effect’ that was strongly felt around the world in respect of the success of its GDPR as a global regulation.\n
 Prof Roger Brownsword will be delivering a guest lecture contrasting the approach to AI governance that we see in Brussels and in London, highlighting how each approach will provoke some discontent. He will discuss the EU's insistence that applications of AI should be 'human-centric' and  the common aspiration to develop an 'ecosystem of trust'. This will lead to some reflections on how far (in a world of Law 3.0 thinking) we are prepared to go with AI tools being applied for governance purposes.  \n
 All welcome\n
 Refreshments will be provided\n
