When we talk about technology, there is great focus on artificial intelligence and cybersecurity and their ethical implications. Rightly so, but here, we will be looking at technology from a different point of view. Specifically, we begin with a historical perspective and a little “techno-speak” so we are all on the same page and can appreciate the magnitude of the issue.
We then look at commercial data solutions and discuss both practical and ethical concerns arising from their use. Discussing the evolution of data and technology reminds us that, like anything which evolves slowly, it incrementally becomes the standard over time, with users seldom questioning its inherent risks or liabilities.
This CLE course not only highlights the significance of technological advancements but also encourages critical thinking about the ethical considerations and potential consequences of our reliance on these evolving systems. Join us as we navigate the complex landscape of technology, from its historical roots to its modern-day implications, fostering a nuanced understanding of the balance between innovation and responsibility.
