AI-bots giving legal advice;<\/em> the impact of a universal law; a vision of a divided society with a periphery of people not profiting from AI; a world in which the first thing to do when answering a phone call, is to ask a check question to make sure you are not talking to a deep fake; a society, where being anonymous in public spaces requires an enormous effort…<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We received many great and diverse stories in this years\u2019 IViR \u201cScience Fiction & Information Law\u201d<\/strong> writing competition. The organizing team read and ranked all twenty contributions on writing style, originality and relevance to information law and made a shortlist of seven stories. The shortlisted stories were read by the jury, who decided on three finalists: Jason Fernandes, Andy H. Neale and Leevi Saari.

On 23 May<\/strong> 2024<\/strong> a festive award ceremony took place at the Computer, Privacy & Data Protection (CPDP)<\/a> conference in Brussels. At this event, the three finalists read excerpts of their stories and started a conversation with the audience about the future of Information Law. After that, Jason Fernandes<\/strong> was announced the winner of this year’s writing competition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
