International Seminar on “AI and Law of Agency” on 18 March 2026 (Wednesday) at 4:00 PM IST via Google Meet (Online)
About the programme
This International Seminar explores the rapidly evolving intersection of Artificial Intelligence and the Law of Agency. As AI systems increasingly act as autonomous agents in commercial and legal contexts, fundamental questions arise about representation, authority, liability, and accountability. The seminar brings together leading experts to examine how traditional agency law principles apply — and must adapt — in an era of intelligent autonomous systems.
Through expert presentations and cross-jurisdictional perspectives, participants will gain a deeper understanding of:
- The legal status and authority of AI agents under existing agency frameworks
- Liability attribution and accountability when AI acts as an agent
- Comparative perspectives on AI agency from common law and civil law traditions
- Regulatory and ethical challenges posed by autonomous AI decision-making in law
