Deputy Director, Centre for Computational Law (CCLAW)
SMU Yong Pung How School of Law
SYNOPSIS
This webinar explores the field of artificial intelligence and law from a technological starting point.
It aims to give participants with a nuanced understanding of key legal issues raised by AI grounded on a clear, hype-free picture of what AI systems are (and are not).
The session will begin with a brief technical introduction to “AI” before considering key questions surrounding AI governance and regulation.
Jerrold Soh is an Assistant Professor at Yong Pung How School of Law (YPHSL) and Deputy Director of the Centre for Computational Law. He specialises in the relationship between law and artificial intelligence and is centrally interested in how the legal system may not only regulate, but also meaningfully use, artificial intelligence.
To this end, he has published research on automated vehicle liability, attribution rules for AI systems, expressing laws as code, automated text classification for court judgments, causal legal text analytics, case law citation networks, and the state of legal innovation in the Asia Pacific region.
He regularly speaks at conferences, roundtables, and executive education classes on these topics. At YPHSL, he teaches the law of torts as well as an elective on Law and Technology. He holds degrees in Law and Economics from NUS and an LLM from Harvard Law School.
