AI Training, Data, and Governance: Copyright Battles and Legal Requirements

AI is transforming the legal landscape, from lawsuits concerning training data to new regulations on data use and model deployment. In this episode of Let’s Brief It, host Pauline Wanjiru Irungu, an LL.M. student at American University Washington College of Law specializing in intellectual property and technology law, discusses these developments with two attorneys from Finnegan: Anna Chauvet, partner and head of Finnegan’s copyright practice, who works on front line questions about AI training data, fair use, and authorship, and Lynn Parker Dupree, leader of Finnegan’s privacy practice and former Chief Privacy Officer at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, who advises clients on AI governance and compliance, AI training, and harmonizing existing data privacy requirements with the use of AI technologies. Together, they examine the legal landscape of AI training data, evolving copyright and privacy rules, and essential questions regarding consent and accountability. This episode offers a practical guide for law students and early-career attorneys navigating the intersection of AI and law.
