Algorithms of Power: Legal Aspects of Public Administration

Pavilion F, conference hall F2
Digitalization: The Law of the Future or the Future of the Law?
Broadcast
Digitalization has had a major impact on a variety of areas, including government and management. New technologies, including AI tools, have been tasked with making public administration more effective, while reducing costs. It should also make it much easier for members of the public to avail themselves of state services. At the same time, the use of these technologies is raising numerous questions to do with protecting personal data and cybersecurity. There are also ethical issues related to making decisions that may affect people’s rights and freedoms. What can be done to strike a legal balance between developing the state’s technical capabilities and protecting private interests? Should the use of digital technology – including AI – in public administration be limited somehow? What digital solutions could prove to be most useful in supporting administration in various areas of society and government?
