Artificial intelligence: how to achieve trustworthy usage in Germany and Europe? was the motto of the Consumer Law Days on July 12. The conference, that is held by the Federal Ministry of Justice and Consumer Protection (BMJV) since 2015, addresses current issues of consumer law and aims to develop ideas for key topics in the field. Professor Georg Borges was part of the distinguished panel.

Whether because of issues concerning the protection from discrimination, transparency or revisability - the use of artificial intelligence raises many consumer law issues. The Consumer Law Days 2021 have shed light on important possible and necessary regulatory options. In the session "Field-specific Challenges of AI Systems for Consumer Protection and National Scope for Action," Professor Borges spoke on "AI Systems in Financial Services - Scoring and Robo-advising as Models of the Future?"
The discourses of the law conference can provoke important thought processes and decisions with regard to specific options for action in the field of legal policy.
