Ars Boni 362 Special Edition: When technology disrupts the law (Prof. Dr. Sandra Wachter)

This special edition is cohosted by Prof. Dr. Barbara Prainsack and is an event organised by the Research Platform: Governance of Digital Practices. We are very proud to welcome Prof. Dr. Sandra Wachter for an invited speach and debate.  -----------  „When technology disrupts the law.  AI decides who gets a loan, who gets to go to university and who gets a job. Yet, these systems are often opaque and biased, and we have very little understanding how and why they make these life changing decisions. We need to ask ourselves is the law equipped to deal with these legal challenges? ”    -----------  Prof. Dr. Sandra Wachter  is Professor of Technology and Regulation at the Oxford Internet Institute at the University of Oxford where she researches the legal and ethical implications of AI, Big Data, and robotics as well as Internet and platform regulation. Her current research focuses on profiling, inferential analytics, explainable AI, algorithmic bias, diversity, and fairness, as well as governmental surveillance, predictive policing, human rights online, and health tech and medical law. Sandra Wachter will also give the keynot of this term's "Semesterfrage" on the very same day - "Was macht Digitalisierung mit der Demokratie?".    Links:  https://digigov.univie.ac.at/ https://www.oii.ox.ac.uk/people/profiles/sandra-wachter/  https://politikwissenschaft.univie.ac.at/en/about-us/staff/prainsack/  https://kalender.univie.ac.at/einzelansicht/?tx_univieevents_pi1[id]=30153 https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=JUriFFaTqW0
