TALK DESCRIPTION

The laws and policy regimes that govern how we create, train, test, and license artificial intelligence technology are changing. And these change are worldwide, varying depending on the jurisdiction and branch of government. Technologists, startups, and entrepreneurs do not need to become experts on these law and policy changes to develop and deploy AI tools. But basic foundational knowledge on these topics can make sure that your business and engineering decisions are made consistent with the law and consistent with the way governments and judges are currently thinking about the issues. Jacob Canter is a technology lawyer at the firm Crowell & Moring LLP that focuses on AI, IP, privacy, and cybersecurity. His presentation will focus on major topics in AI law and policy, and will leave you with the basic foundational knowledge that you need to succeed.
