Artificial Intelligence and the Law 2024 Update: AI Regulations and Risks and How to Ensure Responsible AI Use

Why Attend?

Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the way we live, work, and play—and the proliferation of AI systems that directly affect individuals and companies will continue to accelerate in the future. This seminar is an annual update that will focus on the law of AI, autonomous and algorithmic systems (collectively AI), and the impact of AI on legal practice. It will offer attorneys an opportunity to develop a better understanding of AI, including its history, uses, and limitations, as well as the law developing nationally and internationally relevant to AI.

The seminar will begin with a survey of AI and its applications. Next, it will examine the interplay between Trustworthy AI, AI Governance and AI Risk, and how that relates to evolving law covering AI. This includes examination of how current law is being applied to AI technology and how regulators are attempting to address future concerns. Given the broad uses of AI in every sector and the relationship between AI and data, the seminar will consider laws and standards covering privacy, data usage, and security as well as AI specific and relevant sectoral specific laws. Further, the seminar will explore various certifications and standards being adopted to ensure Trustworthy AI.

You will learn:

• A brief history of artificial intelligence (AI), autonomous and algorithmic systems, including machine learning (ML)
• The state of AI/ML, including current applications and future direction of the technology
• The fundamentals of Trustworthy AI and its relationship to privacy and data security regulation
• The technical risks AI creates, including explain-ability and interpretability, AI “brittleness” and data drift, bias in the AI lifecycle, and how to explain legal mandates to data scientists
• How AI risks have manifested in past AI incidents, including incidents related to both AI predictions and security
• How current laws apply to AI and a view into the future of AI regulation, including federal and state regulatory action and the European Commission Regulations on Artificial Intelligence (EU AI act)
• How attorneys should think about security, privacy, and algorithmic discrimination risks as they relate to AI and existing statutes and regulations
• How AI governance is being incorporated in traditional frameworks and the emergent development of AI governance frameworks
• What attorneys should consider when litigation or transactional matters involve AI, including discovery, legal drafting, risk management and more
