Bio

Dr Henry Fraser is Lecturer at QUT Law and a Research Fellow at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Automated Decision-Making & Society (ADM+S). Henry's research is about regulating AI technologies and about how best to allocate risk and responsibility in complex AI value chains. His interdisciplinary research draws on critical analysis of existing law, systems engineering, data science and regulatory theory both to explore the application of existing law to AI, and to contribute to urgent national and international conversations about how to regulate AI. 

His experience straddles the scholarly and practical. He has more than 10 years’ experience as a practising lawyer, and specialises in tech law, information regulation, intellectual property and privacy. He has practised both in a top tier firm, and in innovative, ‘new law’ practices. He is a co-founder of Treescribe, a contract automation startup, and he was a leading contributor to Lawpatch.org, a multi-jurisdictional collection of open-source contract clauses, designed to be incorporated by reference into contracts via hyperlinks. He maintains active links with the legal profession and the legal technology community.
