Digital China: China’s Plans for Cyberspace & the Digital Economy (video)

Digital China: What Are China’s Leaders & Scholars Saying About Their Plans for Cyberspace?

LIVE Webcast, Oct 17, 2017, 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm ET (US), from New America, Washington, D.C.

LIVE Video Tuesday:

As China launches its 19th Party Congress, its plans to shape cyberspace are becoming ever clearer. Through the publications of government and Party officials, we are increasingly getting insights into Chinese plans for the digital economy. Often however that information is only available to Chinese-speakers. Therefore, through New America, a group of China cyber experts have launched a new effort to translate and analyze key Chinese documents and make them available to a wider audience.
At this event they will offer their insights on China’s plans for the digital economy, including cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, cryptocurrencies, internet governance, and much more. What have Chinese officials already told the world? What goals has Beijing already achieved? Where has China run into challenges? What new initiatives should we expect from the 19th Party Congress, the 4th World Internet Conference, and beyond? What does this mean for the United States?

LIVE Video Tuesday:

Around the world legal frameworks are failing to keep pace with technology. Nations are struggling to secure consumers’ privacy and conflicted about how best to manage the effects of powerful new technologies like artificial intelligence without stifling innovation.

Is regulation necessary, or can voluntary frameworks suffice? Where are the current points of failure in our legal system? Where are the strengths? What responsibilities do technologists have? What should policymakers avoid in developing new regulatory efforts? What are the consequences if we fail? How can policy catalyze innovation?

The American Bar Association Standing Committee on Law and National Security, New America, and Pitt Cyber host a discussion of the widening gap between coding and codes.
