On Friday, January 30, 2026, the Intercultural Human Rights Law Review hosted its 2026 symposium, “Al v. Humanity: Borders, Bots, and Bombs,” bringing together scholars, practitioners, military leaders, and ethicists to explore the legal and ethical challenges of artificial intelligence in the modern world.
Through three dynamic panels, Military Intelligence, Social Media and Al, and Sovereignty Over Migrants, speakers examined how emerging technologies are reshaping warfare, public discourse, and border enforcement, while raising urgent questions about accountability, human rights, and the role of law in the digital age.

Perez, U.S. Marine Corps; Robert Hacker, Director of StartUP, Florida Int’l. University; Eric Page Hockman, Esq., Partner, Weiss Serota Helfman Cole + Bierman; Daniel C. Borges, Esq.
