How Is AI Reshaping Law and Governance?
NobleCamps’ Coffee Chats Series brings together professionals, experts and industry leaders for thoughtful conversations on timely topics shaping the future of business, technology and society.
This fifth session explored how AI is affecting existing legal frameworks, how those frameworks can safeguard users as AI rapidly expands, and what forms of governance may be necessary as the technology continues to develop.
The session was conducted in English and featured Kyoko Yoshinaga, Project Associate Professor at Keio University’s Graduate School of Media and Governance and Affiliate Scholar at the Georgetown Law Institute for Technology & Policy, followed by open conversation and light refreshments.

Artificial intelligence is advancing rapidly, creating new opportunities while raising important questions for law, regulation and governance.
In this session, we explored how AI is affecting existing legal frameworks, how those frameworks can safeguard users, what forms of governance may be necessary, and how AI itself may shape governance as the technology continues to evolve.
