About the event
We’re kicking off our fall programming with an introduction to the latest AI legal issues that impact authors, libraries, archives, and museums. This conversation is especially important as the law in this area rapidly evolves, with new legislative and regulatory approaches emerging that could significantly reshape how your organization navigates AI. The session will focus on three of the most important copyright issues raised by AI: 1) the legality of accessing and using copyrighted materials as training data, 2) what liability exists for potentially infringing outputs (and who is responsible), and 3) what level of copyright protection is afforded to AI outputs?
Since this is our kick-off for our joint OCEAN and Authors Alliance series about AI and copyright, Dave Hansen, Executive Director of the Authors Alliance will be joined by Rina Elster Pantalony, Senior Advisor, Library Policy & Intellectual Property, UCLA Library, Board Chair and President of OCEAN and Amith Ananthram, PhD Candidate, Columbia University, to unpack the basics of AI and copyright law. See you there!
