Barry Sookman’s Post

I look forward to giving a keynote speech at the ALL IN Event AI conference in Montreal on September 27. I am speaking at the session organized by the CDCE. See the link to the conference @ https://allinevent.ai/ The title of my talk is "Creating Tomorrow Today: AI, Copyright, and the Wisdom of Experience". A summary of my intended remarks is below. In this keynote, we explore how Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) poses both challenges and opportunities for creative industries and cultural diversity. GenAI's use of copyrighted material in training and the flood of AI-generated content raises concerns about compensation and incentives for creators. However, history shows that legal adaptations have always followed technological revolutions. The key question is whether these adaptations will happen quickly enough to avoid past mistakes and delays. Join us to delve into the evolving landscape of AI and copyright, seeking a balanced and timely approach to these transformative forces. #genai #artificialintelligence #copyright #culturaldiversity ALLIN EVENT DA Coalition pour la diversité des expressions culturelles / for the diversity of cultural expressions Orelie Brulet Roanie Levy Marie-Julie Desrochers Bill Skolnik Élisabeth Schlittler Jérôme Payette Carol Ann Pilon Carole Piovesan Michael Power David Swail Pina D'Agostino Franklin Graves Ed RyanTroy Prince Jessica Silbey Jenevieve Maerker
