About the Conference

The evolution of technology has led to reforms in the society as well as law across the time. Technology is now recognised as an enabler, necessary for growth and development. Ethics and law are inextricably connected in this modern contemporary era, and thereby many legal decisions arise from the interpretation of various ethical issues surrounding them. The information technology adds another perspective and new dimension to these issues. Systems using artificial intelligence, robotics and machine learning technologies today are becoming increasingly autonomous in terms of the complexity of the tasks they can perform, their potential impact on the world and the diminishing ability of humans to understand, predict and control their functioning. Whether it is the growing use of digital gadgets in our house or the advent of new technologies like Artificial Intelligence, Big Data etc. New rules set the possibilities of employment of digital technologies in order to attain goal which was reached through other technologies in the past. The marvels in technology have enabled us to achieve a social revolution where the definition of society and socially accepted behaviours have been completely refurbished. These advancements, even though have made our lives easier, have also led to a disruption amongst the regulatory framework. The change in technologies influences both the source and the structure of the rules. It has placed all of us in a spot to address and strike the correct balance between technology, innovation, and resolving potential threats.
