AI & the Constitution: Is the Law Ready?

In Episode 26 of Ubuntu & Law, we explore the growing impact of artificial intelligence on law, human rights and society.

We look at constitutional rights including equality (Section 9), human dignity (Section 10), privacy (Section 14), freedom of expression (Section 16), and the limitation of rights (Section 36).

We also discuss Roux v Greunen and Others, where the South African courts confronted the risks of relying on AI-generated legal information.

The big question: As AI becomes more powerful, is South Africa's existing legal framework ready to protect people while allowing innovation?
