Description

The explosion of artificial intelligence has presented many opportunities to improve processes, lighten workloads, and generate new content. However, the development of many new AI systems requires copying and analysis of large amounts of content. Much of this content is readily available on the internet, but a substantial amount is copyrighted. The usage of this content is raising questions and concerns about whether copyrights are infringed and whether the fair use doctrine applies.

Some creators and owners of this content are now suing, asserting that the both the use of their content to train AI systems and the outputs of AI systems infringe their rights under copyright law. Operators of AI systems assert that their use of such content does not infringe or is protected under the doctrine of fair use.

Where does copyright law apply in the training and output of AI systems? When can the fair use defense apply? What guidance can be gleaned from the Supreme Court’s recent fair use decisions in Warhol and Google v. Oracle and leading circuit court decisions?

Listen as our authoritative panel of IP attorneys examines the questions and concerns of copyright and fair use in the context of AI. The panel will also discuss key considerations for AI companies and offer best practices for ensuring compliance with copyright law.
