With the widespread use of artificial intelligence (AI) comes a clear need for regulation. The Cornell China Center invites you to join us for Artificial Intelligence Regulation Across the World, a virtual event on AI regulation at local and global scales.

The European Union has set world standards with its General Data Protection Regulation and is mulling over an Artificial Intelligence Act. China has developed a series of regulations and rules for algorithmic supervision and accountability, and in the U.S., a legal framework for regulating AI is slowly taking shape.

Do these worldwide regulations share any strategic similarities or common values? How is AI interacting with intellectual property rights? How can AI guidelines enhance accessibility for citizens with disabilities? This panel brings together distinguished theorists and practitioners to address AI questions critical to our world today.

Panelists:

·       Rostam J. Neuwirth, Professor of Law, Head of the Department of Global Legal Studies at the Faculty of Law of the University of Macau, “The EU Artificial Intelligence Act and the Subliminal Manipulation of Human Mind and Behavior”

·       Xiaoping Wu, Counsellor in the Intellectual Property, Government Procurement and Competition Division of the World Trade Organization, “Reflections on Intellectual Property Related Policy, and Legal Issues Arising from the Interaction of Artificial Intelligence and Intellectual Property Rights”
