Join the ABA and the National Association of Consumer Advocates (NACA) for a conversation about the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on consumers from low-income and marginalized communities. This webinar includes a presentation of the harms created or exacerbated by automated decision systems (ADS) as they relate to consumer law issues, such as lending and debt collection, and an overview of responses from a recent ABA survey on consumer law and ADS. Presenters discuss the implications of AI in the consumer law context, from the perspective of attorneys in the private and public sectors. Webinar attendees are asked to complete a brief survey about their own familiarity with issues at the intersection of AI and consumer law.
