Présentation (en anglais seulement)
L’Initiative IA + Société et la Commission du droit de l’Ontarioprésentent,
en collaboration avec le Centre de recherche en droit, technologie et société de l’Université d’Ottawa :
A year ago, the Government of Canada enacted the Directive on Automated Decision-Making, the most significant initiative to directly regulate AI and ADM in Canada to date. A few days ago, the Government of Ontario launched a new consultation for “Ontario’s first responsible AI framework”. Yet, a lot has to be done in Canada to comprehensively regulate AI systems, both in the private and public sectors. In contrast, on April 21, 2021, European Commission proposed a new Regulation laying down harmonised rules on artificial intelligence to create a risk-based legal framework for AI systems in the European Union.
How can we regulate AI systems to protect human rights and due process while promoting innovation? Our experts will decrypt the current regulatory initiatives in Canada and the EU, and will discuss what could be next for Canada.
The conversation will draw from the recent report “Regulating AI” published by the Law Commission of Ontario as well as Artificial Intelligence and the Law in Canada (LexisNexis, 2021), a new collection edited by Florian Martin-Bariteau and Teresa Scassa.
