Navigate the legal battleground where AI technology challenges human identity, analyzing the clash between state and federal laws on deepfakes and rights of publicity.
AI. Suicide. Copying Humans. Voice Theft. Are you talking to a real person or an AI bot? Are states playing whack-a-mole to regulate AI because the feds are standing down? This program explores AI in 2026, examining a variety of issues that have hit the legal system and reviewing the existing state and federal regulatory regimes for managing the explosion of AI in our lives.
From deepfakes and the right of publicity to the earliest state laws on notice of AI interactions, and state efforts to regulate AI involving children in the areas of suicide and sexually explicit material, this program will let you explore state and federal laws in this rapidly evolving field. We will analyze how states are moving to regulate AI issues while the Executive branch seeks to let AI develop for national policy reasons.
