Products using new technologies such as artificial intelligence, connected technologies, autonomous functionalities and drones have the potential to bring real benefit to consumers. However, the debate continues as to whether existing product safety rules and regimes are fit for purpose when dealing with these new technologies. Panellists will debate the need for more rules around the development of new technologies in order to ensure safety and audience members will be given the opportunity to participate in real-time voting to indicate their agreement, or not, with the arguments being made. The debate will consider, for example, the adequacy of rules to deal with responsibilities for the actions of “robots”, connected devices, 3D printed products and artificial intelligence.
