Perkins Coie presented at Digital Hollywood’s “AI Bill of Rights, Ethics & the Law” Summit, a one-day virtual conference that seeks to advance the conversation around the establishment of a national regulatory policy for artificial intelligence (AI). The October 19 event highlighted the tension between efforts to unleash a once-in-a-generation burst of innovation, while simultaneously safeguarding against the dangers and risk inherent in complex and still developing technologies.
