Session III:

Generative AI & Intellectual Property Rights of the Creative Artist

The moment every artist, writer, producer, performer as well as network and publishing executive grasp the power of Generative AI, they immediately call their lawyer or legal department. As the massive AI supercomputers in the cloud “scrape data,” or what artists might refer to as their life’s work and begin “Doing their Business,” the entire legal profession, especially in New York, Los Angeles and Silicon Valley get to work. In this session, we will explore these ideas.
