• Ensuring that AI respects humanist values and serves society and the public interest.

This conference will offer attendees the opportunity to hear insights from U.S., EU, and French officials, as well as industry leaders and a prominent voice from the LegalTech sector, who are at the forefront of ethical AI development.
