A Technology With Immense Potential
But Wide-Ranging Legal Ramifications
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a technology with immense potential to change our world and every area of our daily life. From employee use for business automation and consumer-focused generative IP to self-driving cars and even AI lawyering, artificial intelligence is poised to be one of the most innovative technologies of our lives.
However, with such great potential inevitably comes global regulatory scrutiny and the subsequent development of legal frameworks that companies need to comply with, ranging from the European Union’s recently passed AI Act to laws emerging in the United States, such as the case with Utah’s recent AI law, and beyond. There are also various ethical questions relating to artificial intelligence and liability ramifications, as well as unknowns about how existing intellectual property law corresponds to this new paradigm.
Since AI is a nascent and rapidly evolving technology with increased capability developing swiftly, novel legal questions are arising in tandem, such as significant questions on the privacy law front, including those concerning AI and location data. These are only a few of the numerous legal ramifications of AI, which will continue to evolve and expand. Regardless, regulators and lawmakers are putting an increasing focus on implementing legal frameworks for AI. Further, private actions, including class actions and other multi-district litigation (MDL), are proliferating in the artificial intelligence space, and many of the leading voices see an imminent surge of AI-related litigation.
At RICHT, we are AI lawyers focused on working with clients to shape the artificial intelligence space and stay ahead of the regulatory curve. Whether it is privacy compliance and intellectual property considerations, and in particular copyright law, for the development of a large language model (LLM), or drafting and negotiating vendor agreements to limit training on data and provide for adequate indemnification, among other legal considerations, we are here to help empower clients to leverage AI for continued innovation while accounting for legal risk.
