Title: Robotics & The New Cyberlaw
Speaker: Ryan Calo (UW Law)
Date: December 1, 2023
Abstract: The ascendance of the Internet wrought great social, cultural, and economic changes. It also launched the academic movement known as “cyberlaw.” The themes of this movement reflect the essential qualities of the Internet, i.e., the set of characteristics that distinguish the Internet from predecessor and constituent technologies. Now a new set of technologies is ascending, one with arguably different essential qualities. This talk examines how the mainstreaming of robotics—for instance, drones and driverless cars—will affect legal and policy discourse, and explores whether cyberlaw is still the right home for the resulting doctrinal and academic conversation.
