Join Us for an Insightful CLE Luncheon on AI – October 2nd!
Embracing AI is the next paradigm that industries are turning to for speed, scale, cost, and radical re-organization and filtering of Information. Understanding what AI is, how it was created and the potential of its use raise several legal issues and ethical concerns that we should identify to understand our role, our approach and how to maintain the right safeguards in this nascent cycle of impactful technology.
1. AI – what is it (from details of Greg Brockman’s TED Talk – co-founder of Chat GPT) understanding the vision and utility across different
industries
2. How it is built – Ghost workers, and environmental costs hidden (extreme carbon cost and human labor vets data in early language
models, third party proprorietary information)
3. Where the law is going – addressing risks, limiting bias, ensuring transparency and accountability and the emergence of AI governance
programs within organizations. (Based on: Draft EU AI Act, White House Blueprint for AI Bill of rights, OECD AI Principles, NIST AI RMF).
4. Policy creation, managing governance – creating frameworks that align with the regulatory guidance can provide the right parameters for organizations to thrive and maintain guardrails to ensure compliance and add scale to their organization.
