The global human rights regime, built in and for a world of human actors and decisionmakers, is currently under tremendous stress, from the rise of authoritarianism, climate change, pandemics, and challenges to the multilateral, rules-based international order, including by the policies of the Trump administration. Into this situation, generative AI has now been introduced. How should we navigate this new reality? Join us for a discussion with Harold Hongju Koh for an exploration the novel challenges and potential benefits AI presents for the human rights regime, and how law and regulators should anticipate and address them.
