Both exist to serve h im\, but may very well hurt him too\, since both they are not always used for their intended purposes. Law and machines can come from the noblest en terprises\, but can also serve the cause of folly. They are instruments of progress.\nThis fifth edition of the “Competition and Innovation” confere nce series will explore the relationship between law and technique\, betwe en law and the machine. It will take stock of the changes and responses of law to technical advances and revisit the fears often associated with pro gress. Can we\, by exploring the relationships between law and the machine \, in certain fields\, anticipate the future state of the law and its corr esponding place and function in tomorrow’s modern jurisdictions? Must we f ear the “technicalisation” of law\, to the extent of seeing the machine ev entually replace it?\nThe conference will kick off at noon with a screenin g of the film 'Surviving Progress' in presence of its two directors\, Math ieu Roy and Harold Crooks.\nSee the program and the list of speakers on ww w.gautrais.com/machine2014 \nA request for 3 hours of continuing legal edu cation accreditation has been made to the Barreau du Québec.
