SUMMARY:Artificial Intelligence Conversation with USC Annenberg's Dr. Kate Crawford
DESCRIPTION:Law students\, faculty\, staff and community members interested in artificial intelligence are invited to attend a discussion with author Dr. Kate Crawford. \nCrawford will share a preview of her new book Atlas of AI: Power\, Politics\, and the Planetary Costs of Artificial Intelligence\, published by Yale in April 2021. Atlas of AI explores the historical origins\, labor practices\, infrastructures\, and epistemological assumptions that underlie the contemporary artificial intelligence. Rather than taking a narrow focus on code and algorithms\, Crawford offers a political and a material perspective of how AI is “made:” from lithium mines in Nevada\, to the exploited workers behind “automated” systems\, to the regimes of classification in training data. This talk outlines how AI functions as a registry of power\, which has only amplified during the pandemic at a time of deepening inequality around the world. \nThis event\, hosted UNC School of Law’s AI Decision-Making Research Program (AI-DR) is free and open to the public. \nAbout Kate Crawford \nDr. Kate Crawford is a leading scholar of the social and political implications of artificial intelligence. Her work focuses on understanding large-scale data systems\, machine learning and AI in the wider contexts of history\, politics\, labor\, and the environment. She is a Research Professor of Communication and STS at USC Annenberg\, a Senior Principal Researcher at MSR-NYC\, and the inaugural Visiting Chair for AI and Justice at the École Normale Supérieure. Her academic research has been published in journals such as Nature\, New Media & Society\, Science\, Technology & Human Values and Information\, Communication & Society. Crawford’s work also includes collaborative projects and visual investigations. Her project Anatomy of an AI System with Vladan Joler – which maps the full lifecycle of the Amazon Echo– won the Beazley Design of the Year Award in 2019\, and is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Her collaboration with the artist Trevor Paglen\, Excavating AI\, won the Ayrton Prize from the British Society for the History of Science. Crawford’s latest book\, Atlas of AI: Power\, Politics\, and the Planetary Costs of Artificial Intelligence is published by Yale University Press in 2021.

SUMMARY:Beyond the Headlines: Bankruptcy in the Shadow of COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:Within the last two decades\, major shocks such as the 9/11 terrorist attacks\, the global financial crisis\, and the COVID-19 pandemic have fueled and complicated the use and effectiveness of the American bankruptcy system. \nJoin UNC School of Law’s New York City Alumni Regional Club and Melissa B. Jacoby\, Graham Kenan Professor of Law\, for Beyond the Headlines: Bankruptcy in the Shadow of COVID-19 (sponsored by Greenberg Traurig\, LLP)\, where you will explore how a shock like each of these events intersects with bankruptcy use in a variety of contexts. \nThis presentation is of interest to lawyers specializing in other areas because it will highlight how restructuring professionals and other repeat players in the bankruptcy system use crises like the pandemic to advance expansive and “off-label” uses of bankruptcy that affect legal and policy issues far beyond its intended domain. \nApproval pending for one hour of CLE credit for attending this event. \nQuestions about this event? Please contact Kelly Mann Rose (assistant director of alumni and donor relations) at mann@unc.edu.
