Led by Director Melanie Kay, the Silicon Flatirons x Ethics Series explores ethical issues – legal and in general – associated with technology and business.
Join us for an exciting collaboration exploring a diverse array of ethical issues inherent to emerging technologies, artificial intelligence, entrepreneurship, startup enterprises, privacy regulation, and business transactions. Sessions will feature keynote speakers, expert panels, and community discussion, often with ethics CLE credit available.
Presented by the Daniels Fund Ethics Initiative Collegiate Program at Colorado Law and Silicon Flatirons.
Don’t miss our final event of the 2024-25 Silicon Flatirons x Ethics Series, which will take a deep dive into the myriad ethical issues concerning artificial intelligence and privacy. A diverse panel of experts from the academic, regulatory, public interest, and private sectors will provide a multifaceted and nuanced presentation covering current thinking on the ethical risks and potential privacy harms inherent to modern AI applications, international perspective and geopolitical influences affecting AI privacy debates, a look into the European Union’s approach to regulating and enforcing AI as compared to the current U.S. state-specific approach, Colorado’s current regulatory efforts, and high-level assessment of overall norms, standards, best practices, operational realities, and ethics. Each panelist will deliver a short presentation covering their specific area of expertise, followed by lively moderated debate and conversation amongst the entire panel.
