Emerging novel quantum resources, such as quantum computers and simulators, have an enormous potential to provide benefits beyond the capabilities of today’s technology in terms of social impact and commercial applications. In the legal arena “quantum-boosted” artificial intelligence could substantially improve the quality and efficiency of discovery acceleration, research, and innovation processes, while lowering transaction costs. At the same time, the emergence of quantum technologies will fundamentally affect societal and legal development, underlying power dynamics, and international relations. The duty to anticipate the social and legal ramifications of a widespread adoption of such technologies will fall to governmental authorities, policy makers, and lawyers.

HLS Beyond presents: Why I Changed My Mind
February 21, 2024
Though (ideally) academia is a place where revising one’s ideas is a constant, in reality getting something ‘wrong’ (for students and professors) can be scary. In the current cultural climate it often feels that there is less and less room for the idea that one’s ideas can (and should!) evolve over time as new arguments, information and data emerge. Faculty speakers will demonstrate this process in action as they share their stories of professional moments of reckoning when ideas they had previously thought settled in their worldview changed.
