Basics of Artificial Intelligence for Legal Professionals
  • How AI is Reshaping the Justice Systems


Objective

These past few years have seen the influence of artificial intelligence (AI) literally (as well as a virtually) explode in every aspect of modern life. Given the conservative nature of the legal profession, the fact that most senior legal professionals were trained in a pre-technological context, and the slow speed with which governments tend to react responsibly to innovation, there is a knowledge gap that needs to be  urgently filled.

The main objective of this seminar is to build awareness in criminal justice professionals by exploring the consequences and implications of AI as an integral component of the information society and in its impact  on criminal justice.

Participants will acquire accurate perceptions of the current status and different shades of AI and how they can manifest in a criminal context. This increased awareness will allow them to identify any AI components involved in their work activities and to adapt their strategies accordingly.

Key topics

  • AI, machine learning and deep learning
  • How AI is being used to perpetrate crimes
  • Potential use of AI in investigations
  • Deep fakes

Who should attend?

Defence lawyers, investigators, law enforcers, in-house counsel, judges, prosecutors, notaries, civil servants and policymakers active in the field of criminal law.
