Professor Andrew Murray has been engaging with a range of stakeholders this term, discussing the regulation of AI and information technology.

The dinner was organised by the ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ Public Affairs Team and saw fourteen guests including four MPs and one Peer discuss how the UK should approach the regulation of AI. In November, he spoke to an invited audience of UK civil servants, legal and technological specialists exploring the legal/regulatory risk of metaverse as an emerging technology. He discussed both technical aspects of the metaverse and regulatory risks and challenges, contemplating the need for possible law reform.
