About this talk

This Law on Trial Panel Evening brings together leading experts to critically explore the implications of AI for universities. The emergence of generative AI is already causing sweeping changes to law, politics, the economy and private lives of individuals. It presents unprecedented challenges for universities, in both education and research, reshaping the economy, the legal and other professions, and the public sphere. This panel brings together leading experts to explore questions about AI's implications for universities, including: How might AI change British universities? What genuine benefits might AI bring? What harms and injustices does it entail? What dangers does it threaten? And how should we respond? The event will be followed by an audience Q&A. Chairs: Victoria Ridler and Craig Reeves (Birkbeck Law School).
