How should artificial intelligence be governed? What ethical principles should guide its development and deployment? Can technical mechanisms such as watermarking help establish the provenance and attribution of AI-generated content?
This session will examine these questions from complementary legal, regulatory and technological perspectives. Dr. Rahul Hemrajani from NLSIU will discuss regulatory and ethical approaches to AI. Dr. Danish Pruthi from IISc will discuss model-output
watermarking and attribution from technological and regulatory perspectives.
The presentations will be followed by a moderated panel discussion and audience Q&A, and high tea.
