LAW 6643
Law of Robots

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024.

Robots, artificial intelligence, and autonomous systems have long been the realm of science fiction, but they are increasingly a part of contemporary life as well. Autonomous vehicles, robots and artificial intelligence create special problems for law, and often force policymakers to re-evaluate existing policy, especially as machines make decisions and take actions that were previously the domain of people only. This course will examine how smart machines challenge law and policy, notions of responsibility, rights, and what it means to be human.
