Join us for Tech on Tap: AI & Intellectual Property, sponsored by Hovey Williams, for a lively conversation on how AI is reshaping copyright, patent, and ownership rights in creative and technical work. As AI generates everything from text, images and this event description to software and inventions, long-standing assumptions about authorship, inventorship, and originality are being challenged.
We'll explore how U.S. law (and emerging global trends) is responding, covering recent copyright and patent decisions, unresolved questions around ownership and licensing, and the practical risks organizations face when using AI, from training data exposure to infringement liability. Designed for business and legal professionals, this discussion will offer a clear, practical look at where the law stands today, where it’s heading, and how to use AI strategically while managing IP risk.
Seating is limited. If you are registered and cannot attend, please let us know in advance so your seat doesn't go unfilled.
