Something New Under the Sun: AI, Ethics and the Protection of the Human Condition

This keynote examines the AI revolution as a civilisational transformation comparable to the Enlightenment, exploring its dualities: extraordinary advances in medicine and sustainability, but also risks of mass surveillance, algorithmic bias and democratic erosion. The central argument holds that Law must serve as the “navigational chart” of this era — with balanced regulation grounded in privacy, transparency and institutional protection — ensuring that innovation serves human dignity and the reduction of inequalities.
