Bird & Bird partner Toby Bond contributed a chapter on UK and EU litigation risks to the 20Minds publication on “Artificial Intelligence and M&A”.
Toby examines the ongoing legal challenges related to using copyright-protected works in AI training. Does the recent wave of litigation suggest that every organisation developing generative AI technology is at risk of being sued? What are the litigation risks for companies simply deploying AI technology? Can a clear distinction be drawn between developers and deployers, and how can companies mitigate the risk of lawsuits? Amid the noise surrounding AI, Toby identifies emerging themes and provides key predictions.
20Minds is a publication series created for executives, board members, and investors who lead global organisations in an increasingly complex legal and policy landscape. 20Minds’ contributors are selected “based on recommendations from corporate counsel for their expertise in analysing how legal and policy shifts impact corporate strategy and risk.”
