VAIA Presents Jan De Bruyne (CiTiP, KU Leuven)

Damages by AI: some of the challenges in extra-contractual liablity law

30 Nov 2021 12:30 - 13:15

Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly important in our daily lives. It might not surprise that AI-related claims are also becoming more frequent. For example, reference can be made to accidents caused by autonomous motor vehicles or a medical-diagnostic AI system that performs an incorrect operation during an operation. The question arises as to who can and should be held liable for such damage. In this webinar, Dr Jan De Bruyne will demonstrate in an accessible manner how the unique properties of AI are challenging the application of traditional concepts in current extra-contractual liability law.
