Robotics and the New Cyberlaw - 2023 Fall Robotics Colloquium

Explore the intersection of robotics and law in this thought-provoking colloquium talk by Professor Ryan Calo from the University of Washington School of Law. Delve into the concept of "The New Cyberlaw" as Calo examines how the mainstreaming of robotics technologies like drones and driverless cars is reshaping legal and policy discourse. Compare the essential qualities of robotics with those of the Internet that gave rise to the cyberlaw movement. Consider whether cyberlaw remains the appropriate framework for addressing the legal and academic challenges posed by emerging robotic technologies. Gain insights from Calo's extensive experience in law and emerging technology, including his work with the UW Tech Policy Lab and the UW Center for an Informed Public. Benefit from the perspective of a leading scholar who has testified before the U.S. Senate, organized events for national institutions, and contributed significantly to the field of robotics law and policy.
