Updated November 3, 2017
The Women Leaders panel at the MIT Legal Forum conference generated a lot of interest. Because of that, the following has been set up.
On October 30 & 31, 2017, this conference is being held at the MIT Media Lab with the purpose of providing a forum for legal scholars, practitioners, technologists and business professionals with the goal to:
- Discuss the current and likely impact of AI and blockchain technologies on the law
- Develop an initial framework for the evaluation, prioritization and practical application of AI and blockchain technologies to the law
