Beyond the Black Box: Resolving Disputes over the Implementation and Use of AI

Beyond the Black Box: Resolving Disputes over the Implementation and Use of AI | 27 April 2023

Alibaba founder, Jack Ma stated recently that “we should use AI to solve problems rather than being controlled by AI.” However, does the use of AI itself create problems? Should corporate counsel and disputes practitioners be mindful of potential disputes? Or is this paranoia arising from a failure to understand how AI works?

In the first of Maxwell Chambers new #BeyondtheBlackBox series, Benson Lim and Jae Hee Suh will lead the discussion on “Resolving Disputes over the Implementation and Use of AI”.

The discussion, subject to the Chatham House Rules, will address, amongst others:

The use of AI in the legal industry to automate and enhance legal work and the related risks.
The potential IP and tech-related disputes arising from the use of AI in the commercial sectors. Examples include chat histories on OpenAI’s ChatGPT being made publicly visible due to a bug.
The novel disputes relating to the intersection of government regulations and use of AI. These will be discussed in the broader context of the clash between governments and Big Tech, the most recent example of which being the US congressional hearing for TikTok’s Singaporean CEO.
The relevance of investment protections and possible investment arbitrations for aggrieved tech investors.

Simmons & Wavelength will also conduct a live demonstration of one of their over 30 legal tech products to the invitees – product details to be unveiled at the discussion!

Please RSVP by 17 April 2023. We look forward to having you join us!
