Course syllabus
During the course, the main innovations determined by technological innovation and the problems deriving from the presence of new operators such as platforms and the digitalization of services will be examined in detail. In particular, we will focus on the characteristics and effects of the digitalization of services in regulated markets and on the potential and risks deriving from the development of the most recent technologies (in particular artificial intelligence). Precisely the latter can have considerable importance in many areas, including the health one, and require careful examination in terms of both responsibility and ethical profiles as well as on the assumption of decision-making processes. Finally, specific attention will be dedicated to the possible problems of protecting users and competition caused by the so-called Big Tech.
