LAW 2514 - Artificial Intelligence Regulation and Risk Minimization in a Data Driven Society
Today’s technologies enable the unprecedented exploitation of data for any thinkable purpose, but mostly in business and surveillance. Algorithms are regularly used for mining data of a highly personal nature, offering unexplored patterns and deep non-causal analyses to those businesses seeking to exploit these advances.
Yet, these innovations need to be properly framed under existing legal frameworks that account for protection of fundamental rights and freedoms. For these aims, laws providing data protection plays a significant role
The course aims at enabling students to understand how algorithms and data mining techniques are used in today’s society as well as how those techniques intersect with applicable legal frameworks. Students will develop an awareness of the interplay between these techniques and normative rules.
