Course description
Competition enforcement agencies around the world are studying the potential impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on market competition. Questions about whether it is possible for companies to use AI as a means of colluding, with limited or no human involvement, are likely to proliferate. As questions multiply, regulatory scrutiny and competition-related risk are also likely to increase.
This short webinar presented by Francesco Liberatore will discuss the potential antitrust issues arising from the use of AI under EU and UK competition laws.
Covering what creates the risk, the future of the Digital Single Market, enhanced competition, where to draw the line and who is liable for the decisions and actions of AI?

Introduction
Competition enforcement agencies around the world are studying the potential impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on market competition.
As these enforcement agencies dig deeper and study AI-related activities in the market, questions inevitably will arise and competition uncertainty will likely increase. Questions about whether it is possible for companies to use AI as a means of colluding, with limited or no human involvement, are likely to proliferate. As questions multiply, regulatory scrutiny and competition-related risk are also likely to increase.
This short webinar will discuss the potential antitrust issues arising from the use of AI under EU and UK competition laws.
