Episode 1 – Regulating AI – the European Approach and the APAC Perspective

The speakers will consider how jurisdictions such as Mainland China, Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia are reacting to both the challenges and opportunities presented by AI, how some have decided to “plough their own furrow” while others have drawn on the European Union Artificial Intelligence Act which some may view as aiming to set the “gold standard” in AI governance. Our speakers will draw on their global and regional experience to share their insights on how to address regulatory challenges and approaches to AI governance.

What will be discussed: 

  • What needs to be regulated
  • The regulatory and governance approach to AI in Mainland China, Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia
  • The lessons that can be learned from the European experience and approach
  • The challenges for regulators and clients in APAC jurisdictions

Episode 2 – AI liability demystified – legal complexities and accountability

DATE AND TIME: 25 June 2024 | 12:30 – 13:30 (Hong Kong, Singapore) / 11:30 – 12:30 (Jakarta) / 13:30 - 14:30 (Tokyo) / 15:30 - 16:30 (Sydney)

AI technology raises difficult questions about the scope of potential civil liability, including AI-driven privacy violations, discrimination, failure to spot compliance issues, accidents, and security breaches. If a loss or some other harm has been caused by AI that uses machine learning to make decisions on its own, general liability principles such as foreseeability, may be difficult to apply. Our speakers will outline how these issues are tackled in the APAC region and share their recent experience from Europe and what impact the newly established EU regulations will have on specific industry sectors including health, transport, industrial and others.

The session considers:

  • General civil liability including civil and tortious liability
  • Breach of duty and discriminatory practices
  • Burden of proof, standard of care, attributing fault
  • Allocating risk and commercial considerations
  • Liability scenarios and possible outcomes

Our Hogan Lovells speakers will include Dr. Leopold von Gerlach, Mark Parsons, Byron Phillips, Teguh Darmawan, Nicole Saurin and Shi Jin Chia.
