Driverless cars, diversity and the decisions we leave to AI – Sam De Silva, Co-Head of the Commercial Practice | CMS Unscripted S2 Episode 4

Would you trust a driverless car to make the right decision? Drawing on more than 25 years in technology law, Sam De Silva explores why we may only be at the beginning with AI. What happens when machines have to make human decisions? What are the risks when AI starts learning from AI-generated content? And, beyond those challenges, what new possibilities and professions could the technology create? He also shares his perspective on diversity in the legal profession, including the value of representation and role models for the next generation of lawyers. Along the way, Sam reflects on his journey into law, leadership and why enjoying the work still matters.
