About the event
This half day seminar is jointly hosted by the Alan Turing Institute, Northumbria University’s Centre for Evidence and Criminal Justice Studies and the Sentencing Academy.
The event will explore the current and proposed future uses of AI in sentencing and more broadly the management of offenders. It is intended to present different perspectives on the use of AI in this context and raise awareness of, and provoke engagement with, the ongoing debates in this area.
The event starts at 13:00 with a light lunch, where you will have the opportunity to network with a diverse range of individuals interested in the use of AI in criminal justice and sentencing. The seminar will bring together academics, policymakers, practitioners and computer scientists.
There will be two sessions addressing different themes relating to AI in sentencing, with a short break in-between. After the presentations, there will be plenty of time for questions and discussion.
The theme of the first session is the use of AI in sentencing from a technical perspective, including speakers from the Alan Turing Institute, Northumbria University and the Centre for Data Ethics and Innovation.
The second session will explore the issues for practice arising from the use of AI at sentencing and includes speakers from legal practice and the Sentencing Academy.
The event will close at 4:30pm followed by refreshment in the reception area.
