Description: Artificial intelligence is a daily operational tool reshaping industries. Its rapid adoption has outpaced many legal frameworks, leaving organizations vulnerable to compliance risks. In the US, state legislatures are moving at different speeds to regulate AI, creating a patchwork of rules on transparency, fairness, and consumer protection. Internationally, sweeping initiatives such as the European Union’s AI Act and frameworks in Asia are establishing new global standards. This session will explore current AI regulation in the US and abroad, highlight the key provisions that legal professionals must monitor, and examine the pitfalls and risks of AI use in the workplace. Special attention will be given to issues related to ensuring data privacy, handling personally identifiable information (PII), and using proprietary or confidential information in AI-driven systems.
