* **The Perils of Being Normative: Towards a Socio-Legal Framework on Social Norms and Adaptive Technologies**
* While recent progress has been made in several fields of data-intense AI-research, many applications have been shown to be prone to unintendedly reproduce social biases, sexism and stereotyping. As more of design-based, algorithmic or machine learning methodologies, here called adaptive technologies, become embedded in anything from commonly used software to robotics, there is a need for a developed understanding of what role social norms play in the interplay between human expressions and technology, particularly with regards to fairness. In this presentation, Larsson proposes a theoretical framework for the interplay between adaptive technologies and social norms in order to point to the often normative, non-neutral, aspects of developing and implementing adaptive technologies.

* **Legal discretion and the many meanings of law’s language: Challenges and possibilities for ‘NLP-as-law’s-helping-hand’**
* In my research I have explored questions on legal discretion and decision making (Arvidsson & Noll 2023), the meaning and matter in law’s language (e.g., Arvidsson 2024, Arvidsson 2023), as well as the “human in the loop” (Arvidsson 2020, 2018) in relation to AI. In my brief talk I will relay some of the findings from my previous research and point to challenges and possibilities for using NLP in legal research and practice.
