In this summer school, students will gain a better understanding of the concepts of legal technology and responsible artificial intelligence. More specifically:

Students with no background in computing, will learn the basic principles of programming. Students with no background in law, will learn the basic principles for the legal use of technology.
Next, the course includes a description of how predictive algorithms work and unintentionally may pick up biases, including by reference to several practical examples of the use of predictive algorithms in business, customer and legal services.
On this basis, students will be introduced to the ethical and legal requirements for the responsible use of technology in general, and predictive algorithms in particular.
Professionals active in the field of legal technology and responsible artificial intelligence will provide students with insights from practice.
