AI Strategy, Security, and Governance: The View from the Top
Sayoko Blodgett-Ford, GTC Law Group and Jamie Boote, Synopsys
The Board and C-Suite are starting to take notice of the opportunities and risks inherent with powerful new generative artificial intelligence (GAI) tools that can quickly create text, code, images, and other media. Product Development and Engineering teams want to use such tools to increase productivity by at least one order of magnitude. In response, the Security, Legal, and Compliance teams typically raise legitimate concerns about the risks involved. What role can the Board and C-Suite play in this situation?
Join this live Synopsys webinar to get a jump start on what AI strategy, security, and governance looks like from the Board-level and C-suite. We’ll cover:
• Fundamentals of AI, types of models, and data used to inform them
• Expanding existing processes and procedures to address the security risks of GAI
• The top three questions the Board and C-Suite should be asking about GAI
• How to navigate the existing and evolving legal and regulatory landscape -
Best Practices for Using AI in Software Development
Anthony Decicco, GTC Law Group and Sam Ip, Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt
There is no shortage of buzz around generative artificial intelligence (GAI). GAI can be used in software development to generate and augment code which saves times and reduces development cycles. But using AI in software development comes with its own set of risks.
Join this live Synopsys webinar to get an introduction to GAI and how you can minimize risk when using it in your organization. We’ll cover:
• What GAI is and how machines learn
• Legal issues with AI including copyright, web scraping, and more
• Overview of current litigation
• Practical approaches to using GAI while minimizing risk -
Generative AI, Training Data, Open Source, and GitHub Copilot, Oh My!
Lena and Andrew Hall, Hall Law & Mark Lehberg and Chris Stevenson, DLA Piper
Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) will fundamentally change the way that software is built. Whether they are developing or using AI tools, organizations must understand the opportunities and risks involved, and evolve governance, policies and processes to address those risks.
Join this live Synopsys webinar for a deep dive into the issues that arise when using GAI in software development. We’ll cover:
• Open source data and software licenses and risks with AI
• Licensing and clearance considerations for materials used to train AI models
• Licensing considerations in building, training, and using AI models
• A deep dive on GitHub Copilot, including implications of the class action suit -
