Have you noticed that everywhere, and in connection with everything, people are talking about Artificial Intelligence?
The topic moved, at incredible speed, from the field of experts and specialists who worked and studied technology, to the daily lives of all of us, with a huge impact on how we act, work, live and think.
We are increasingly confronted with ethical questions, some of them very serious, and we rarely find straightforward answers.
We often say there should be more regulation, having little or no idea of ​​the enormous amount of regulation that already exists.
Here, at the European Union level, the Artificial Intelligence Regulation stands out, having recently come into force and, probably due to its size and complexity, few have dared to look at it yet.
If you are interested in the ethical issues we encounter daily in conversations, on social media, in the media, for example, such as “marrying” an AI system/agent, “robot children,” locating and identifying people through images, among countless others, this course is for you.
If you want, or need, to navigate the existing legal and regulatory labyrinth, and especially the European Union’s Artificial Intelligence Regulation, this course is for you.
In a way that is accessible to everyone, we will navigate through these topics, making them clear, operational, and useful.
