Laurence will discuss the illegitimate regulation of behaviour by code and AI architectures, reflecting the analysis in Digisprudence: Code as Law Rebooted. The discussion then flips the story, to consider the effects of code in law: what happens to legal normativity when its foundations start to shift from one type of technology to another, and how can we identify and anticipate the changes?

This invited lecture is part of the Legal, Ethical, and Social Issues of AI master course at Vrije University Brussel.
