Gillian Hadfield
Professor and legal theorist Gillian Hadfield has taken on the task of exploring how our economic world has and should change as a result of technology and globalization. In the intellectual tradition of Thomas Friedman, Hadfield has written Rules for a Flat World: Why Humans Invented Law and How to Reinvent It for a Complex Global Economy. Her conclusion? The rules need to shift, and perhaps outside of traditional legal structures. In addition to writing about the intersection of the global economy and law, Gillian serves as Senior Policy Advisor for OpenAI, a San Francisco based research lab focused on ensuring that growing AI technology benefits all of humanity. She also teaches a course entitled “Responsible AI” at the University of Toronto. The class explores governing machine-assisted decisions with care and forethought.
