Explore the legal and commercial risks of using AI in business, from intellectual property and contracts to supplier use, employee policies

Barely a day goes by without mention of AI in the news. Whether it’s large tech companies establishing data centres which affect natural resources, creatives concerned about their copyright being breached or the government saying it’s the route to enormous growth, you’d be forgiven for wanting to turn off the news and do some creative doodling!

But when you’re running a business where profitability is key, or you’re in a competitive market where fast project development is key, AI is becoming an everyday tool.

With it being an everyday tool, there are risks which many businesses have not thought about or got to grips with. Many businesses might be aware of the personal data issues, possibly even the confidentiality, but the dilution of your intellectual property? Or the loss of privilege in key legal documents? Not to mention the downstream effect on contracts you sign with suppliers or your customers, where they (or you) have used AI.

What to expect:

This seminar will equip you with an understanding of the risks that can arise when your employees, suppliers and your own business use AI and integrate it with workflows and products in your business. It will also cover whether that risk can be managed and the tools with which it can be managed.

Seminar content:

We’ll look at:

· Free tier AI: your risks in using it in business

· Enterprise (paid for) AI: the nitty gritty of the t’s and c’s

· Your suppliers use: understanding how you might be exposed to risk

· Your individual contractors use: how this can be managed

· Use by employees: training, trust and policies

· Downstream contracts with your customers: the implications

· Case studies

Key take aways:

Businesses and individuals will upskill on their understanding of the AI providers terms, and will be able to understand how they can manage use of AI within their businesses and with their suppliers.

Who should attend?

This session will be useful for any creative, digital or marketing business to ensure they are up to speed on the issues of using AI in their day to day business. It will also help individuals that provide services to those businesses, to help them understand and manage the issues of using AI and how to be transparent with their usage.
