Technology has long been a subject of law school curricula, but robotics and artificial intelligence are permeating our societies and thus other areas of law. From healthcare to manufacturing, intellectual property to privacy, and even legal practice, technological advances are exerting strong influence on our understanding of the law. This session brings together a group of professors who teach these topics to discuss how they help their students understand the technologies from business, legal, and ethical perspectives.
