Seminar:
A New Rule of Law
Social intelligence, open rights.
Explore the legal and ethical challenges of regulating the contemporary
societies that emerged when Big Data encountered Web 3.0.
With the growth of the Internet of Things and Smart Cities, our world will soon
be managed and possibly ruled almost automatically. How can we regulate a
world that is no longer simply local or global, but informational, framed on
automatically generated data that mechanically produces more data in iterative
cycles? What sort of order will emerge? And with social intelligence – the
common cognitive base for humans and computers – fostering agency in
Multi-Agent Systems, how will we define what is and is not human? How will
law, governance and regulations work in this new hybrid world?
