Litigation over copyright and related claims surrounding artificial intelligence dominated headlines in 2024. Despite the flurry of litigation, significant questions remain unanswered. 2025 is likely to bring some clarity to the legal status of AI, as courts tackle some of the thorniest unresolved legal questions. Cases are proceeding across many different jurisdictions and may take divergent paths on those issues. Panelists will explore the evolving landscape of litigation involving AI-generated works, fair use considerations, liability issues, and recent case law.

This session will address IP licensing scenarios that present legal ethics issues. Panelists will illustrate situations and issues that could occur during a licensing engagement and discuss the applicable rules of ethics. Issues to be discussed may include unintended receipt of the other party’s confidential information, use of AI to draft license agreements, communications with represented parties, use of investigators to gather information from adversaries, and which state’s rules apply in multijurisdictional practice. Speakers will also address when an attorney has a duty to report misconduct, duty of honesty, duty to disclose information, and duty of confidentiality.
