Effective governance and responsible adoption of AI in high-stakes domains require collaboration across disciplines, sectors, and jurisdictions. The From Algorithms to Accountability: Exploring AI Law and Ethics in Practice workshop, held at the 2026 IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence, examined approaches to co-developing standards, accountability mechanisms, and governance frameworks for AI systems. Bringing together experts from diverse fields, the workshop explored current ethical, legal, and regulatory challenges and identified priorities for responsible AI research and practice. This report summarises the key themes, insights, and recommendations emerging from the discussions.
