\n\t\tCONFERENCE SYNOPSIS\n\t<\/h4>\n\t

Artificial intelligence (AI) represents a transformative technological advancement, offering substantial benefits across diverse sectors, from healthcare diagnostics to creative content production to enhanced industrial efficiency. Yet, its rapid integration into society introduces a complex array of ethical and other challenges that necessitate careful examination and proactive management.<\/p>\n

This two-day conference, comprising presentations and panel discussions by academics and industry players, explores how the governance and liability regimes applicable to AI can help induce AI to be more responsible and fairer.<\/p>\n

The pervasive use of AI systems fundamentally alters how information is processed and how decisions are made, necessitating the application of existing principles and the creation of new frameworks to ensure responsible innovation and to safeguard societal well-being. At the same time, safeguards can fail, and technology can malfunction. When our protective measures falter, we need to evaluate liability and ascertain appropriate remedies for damage caused by AI-enabled products and services.<\/p>\n

The conference will explore the evolving landscape of global and national efforts relating to governance and liability, highlighting the interconnectedness of these challenges and the imperative for a multi-stakeholder approach to ensure AI systems align with human values and serve the common good.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tABOUT THE ARTWORK\n\t<\/h4>\n\t

The artwork, created with the aid of generative artificial intelligence application Gemini by Google, draws inspiration from contemporary artist Damien Hirst’s iconic symmetrical kaleidoscopic butterflies paintings that resemble stained glass windows. The butterflies symbolise transformation, but at the same time depict the beauty of life. The mesmerising kaleidoscope patterns infused with technological motifs serve as a metaphor for the unpredictable and ever-changing nature of artificial intelligence, presenting us with endless possibilities and challenges.<\/p>\n\t\t
