Browse Hierarchy SOLM335: Comparative and International Artificial Intelligence Law

The Module examines the legal and ethical issues raised by artificial intelligence. It analyses the technologies (such as LLM, Chat GPT, robotics, predictive systems) and considers the legal issues arising from a range of applications (in areas such as financial services, healthcare, employment, judiciary). It provides an overview of existing and emerging legislation on an international and comparative basis (such as the EU Artificial Intelligence Act, US approaches to AI regulation on a state and federal level, developments in the UK, in Asian states, incl. China and at the international level) and self-regulatory systems. The module will analyse the issues arising from data use and the various approaches to allocating responsibility and liability along with the question of legal personhood.
