Marine Protected And Conserved Areas: Beneficial Uses Of Artificial Intelligence, Kyla Lucey Jan 2024

Marine Protected And Conserved Areas: Beneficial Uses Of Artificial Intelligence, Kyla Lucey

Catholic University Journal of Law and Technology

The ocean is an invaluable tool to the survival of humankind and “produces half of the world’s oxygen, absorbs and sequesters one third of the carbon dioxide human activities emit, provides protection from extreme weather events, and provides a source of food and livelihoods.” Without it, communities would suffer, animals would die off, industries would disappear, and the world would be much worse off.

The Future Of Art And Copyright In The World Of Ai, Danna Subia Espinoza

Catholic University Law Review

The future of mainstream autonomous vehicles is approaching in the rearview mirror.

To understand the potential answer, one may simply go back in time and see how this question would be answered under traditional torts. This Comment tests whether the incident involving an autonomous vehicle hitting a pedestrian is covered under the traditional torts, argues that they are incapable of solving this novel problem, and ultimately proposes a new …

Artificial Intelligence Is Here, Get Ready!, Jessica G. Martz
