Artificial Intelligence Contracts: Drafting and Negotiating (February 13)
Artificial intelligence is software – delivered via the cloud, like SaaS, or as an on-premise system. So most of its terms should be familiar to experienced tech contracts drafters. However, the most sophisticated forms – generative AI – have features unlike other software. In this one hour webinar, we’ll look at those differences, and the new terms they require. And we’ll look at commonalities with traditional software deals, grounding ourselves in the familiar.
Topics covered include:
- Rights to training data, prompts, and outputs
- Special IP risks and their impact on indemnities, warranties, and more
- Privacy compliance terms
- Terms on hallucination, defamation, and other third party risks
- AI’s role as SaaS … or not
- And more …
