Event Details
AI is already reshaping nearly every area of life, bringing both new benefits and new risks. It has created novel harms, from addiction and psychosis to the dangers posed by self-driving cars, while also lowering the cost and expanding the scale of existing harms such as fraud, impersonation, cyberbullying, and discrimination. Especially concerning are the effects of these developments on children. These changes raise urgent questions about who bears responsibility when harm occurs in an increasingly automated world.
On May 26, Jeremy Daum, Senior Research Scholar in Law and Senior Fellow at Yale Law School's Paul Tsai China Center, and Wenjuan Zhang, Senior Counsel at Beijing Zhicheng Law Firm, will join together at Yale Center Beijing for a discussion as part of the series Comparing American and Chinese Legal Approaches to AI Governance. Through a discussion of real legal cases, this event will compare and contrast the principles and priorities that shape how the U.S. and Chinese legal systems assign liability in cases involving AI.
