DME NATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND LAW: A CLOSE INTERFACE

INTRODUCTION

Ethics and law are inextricably connected in this modern contemporary era, and thereby many legal decisions arise from the interpretation of various ethical issues surrounding them. Artificial intelligence adds a different and a new dimension to these questions. Systems that use artificial intelligence technologies today are becoming increasingly autonomous in terms of the complexity of the tasks they can perform, their potential impact on the world and the diminishing ability of humans to understand, predict and control their functioning.

The legal problems run even deeper. A system that has the ability to adapt from the information it receives from the outside world can act in ways that its creators could not have predicted, and predictability is crucial to modern legal approaches. What is more, in future, such systems could operate independently from their creators thus complicating the task of determining responsibility. These characteristics pose problems related to predictability and the ability to act independently while at the same time not being held responsible. The law seems to be playing catch up to the technological innovations across the globe in this area. Artificial intelligence thus raises various ethical, social and legal challenges, that this conference at its heart aims to discuss.

This two-day virtual National Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Law aims to bring together leading academicians, scientists, research scholars, faculty members, students and other relevant stakeholders to exchange and share their experiences, ideas and research results on all aspects of Artificial Intelligence and Law. It also seeks to provide a premier interdisciplinary platform to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered, and solutions adopted on the theme.
