Day of the Liberal Professions 2019

On 13 November, the event, entitled Trust in liberal professions in the age of digitalisation and artificial intelligence, aimed to gain fresh insight into the impact of artificial intelligence on the exercise of professional services and on clients' and patients' rights.

Speakers addressed fundamental issues such as transparency, communication and trust in professionals, regulators' awareness of the challenges linked to the opportunities offered by artificial intelligence, the consequences on the quality of professional services and their capacity to protect public interest.

The meeting was opened by the president of the Diversity Europe Group, Arno Metzler, and Karl Stöger, professor at the Institute for Public Law and Political Science at the University of Graz, delivered a keynote speech on Artificial Intelligence, the liberal professions and the law, with a special focus on the profession of doctors.

  • Consumer protection, healthcare and digital health
