SUMMARY:[event] Pēteris Zilgalvis: AI at the CJUE
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Pēteris Zilgalvis entered office as Judge of the General Court of the European Union in 2021. Before joining the General Court\, Mr Zilgalvis served as Head of Unit for Digital Innovation and Blockchain at the European Commission and also held several positions at the European Commission\, Council of Europe\, and in the Latvian administration. \nDescription: This seminar is an exceptional opportunity to engage directly with Judge Pēteris Zilgalvis (EU General Court) on the recently adopted CJEU Artificial Intelligence Ethics Charter. At a time when courts are increasingly confronted with the promises and perils of AI\, the Charter signals an ambitious attempt to reconcile technological efficiency with the foundational principles of adjudication\, i.e.\, human oversight\, independence\, and fundamental rights. The talk will shed light on how the CJEU is operationalising these principles in practice\, and on the broader implications for the future of judicial decision-making in an AI-driven environment. \nOrganizer: Thibault Schrepel\, Associate Professor at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (ALTI). \nFormat: Judge Zilgalvis will give a 30-minute talk\, followed by a discussion moderated by Dr. Thibault Schrepel and a Q&A with the audience. \nChargement…

SUMMARY:[event] Marco Almada: The Hidden Costs of Technology-Neutral Regulation
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Marco Almada is a researcher working on matters of law and technology. He currently works as a Postdoctoral Researcher in Cyber Policy at the University of Luxembourg\, focusing on AI regulation and cybersecurity. His research is directed towards theoretical and doctrinal issues in regulation\, with a special focus on the learning mechanisms used for navigating scenarios of deep socio-technical uncertainty. He has written extensively on the regulatory frameworks being designed for AI technologies and on the governance of AI in the public sector. \nDescription: Technology neutrality appears in instruments ranging from WTO trade rules to EU legislation on AI and platform governance\, yet scholars and policymakers consistently struggle to define what it requires in practice. Marco Almada’s paper proposes a unifying framework: technology-neutral regulation is a delegation of power\, specifically the power to determine how general rules apply to particular technologies. That reframing connects otherwise disparate accounts in the literature and explains why technology-neutral approaches often fall short or produce unintended side effects. Applied to EU digital regulation\, the framework shows how abstraction from technical detail concentrates power in the hands of certain public and private actors while weakening existing accountability mechanisms. \nOrganizer: Thibault Schrepel\, Associate Professor at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (ALTI). \nFormat: Marco Almada will give a 30-minute talk\, followed by a discussion moderated by Dr. Thibault Schrepel and a Q&A with the audience. \nChargement…
