Legal4Tech - The podcast

In this episode of Legal4Tech - The Podcast we partner again with the GIEF and talk with Professor Sam Illingworth to explore why human skills like judgement, empathy and critical reasoning must remain at the core of AI-powered societies.
Together, we discuss:
How students are really using AI in education, beyond stereotypes about cheating and shortcuts.
Why automating decisions in courts, schools and welfare systems threatens democratic judgement and accountability.
How law and politics shape social media bans, guardrails and even AI-written legislation.

Join us for a grounded conversation on reclaiming human skills as "core skills" in the age of AI and what this means for law, policy and education.

In this episode of Legal4Tech - The Podcast, we talk with Monika Namysłowska and Kasper Drazewski to unpack what digital fairness really means for European consumers today. They explore how endless scrolling, opaque data practices and thousands of micro-harms expose the limits of traditional consent-based protection and why ex-ante rules and unfair commercial practices law need to step up.
Tune in to understand what's at stake if we get digital fairness wrong!

In this episode of Legal4Tech-The Podcast, we talk with human rights and AI expert Sue Anne Teo to unpack how artificial intelligence is reshaping our understanding of rights, power and justice.
We explore topics such as:
How international human rights and EU fundamental rights frameworks respond to AI-driven bias, power and structural injustice.
The risks of anthropomorphic chatbots, from sycophancy and emulated empathy to emerging vulnerabilities and "AI psychosis".
Global regulatory approaches to AI, including the EU AI Act, China's sectoral rules and US policy tools and their gaps on chatbots.
The "Anthropomorphic AI and Emergent Vulnerabilities" research project and what long-term, real-world chatbot use mean for law and design standards.

Join us for a deep dive into the sociotechnical, legal and ethical challenges posed by AI systems and chatbots in everyday life.
