Juli Ponce Solé

Juli Ponce Solé is a prominent Spanish legal scholar and professor of Administrative Law at the Universitat de Barcelona. With a focus on the implications of artificial intelligence (AI) in public administration, Ponce recently published a comprehensive manual addressing the responsible use of AI in compliance with the European Union's upcoming regulations. At 57 years old, he emphasizes the potential risks associated with AI, notably its lack of empathy and decision-making capabilities, which he argues can lead to significant legal and ethical issues. Ponce advocates for a collaborative approach where human judgment remains central in legal decisions, arguing that machines should assist rather than replace human decision-makers.
