The rise of AI – and more specifically LLMs – has sent waves through the world of IP protection, not least in relation to IP risk and how software can be protected. Companies can no longer afford to ignore this conversation as they strive to remain competitive in an increasingly uncertain environment.
In partnership with SEMA, we take a comprehensive look at the risks and opportunities presented by AI in the software space, explore how industry leaders balance different risks against each other, and identify areas of increasing concern as the industry and regulators respond to the rapid pace of innovation.
We will consider the full range of emerging issues in the space, including:
• Regulatory actions by copyright offices and tools available for software IP protection.
• Impacts on IP valuation and dealmaking in a generative AI landscape.
• Future implications for patent, trademark, and trade secret strategies.
• Peripheral risks, including security and challenges in maintaining code generated by or with AI.
