Research, AI and Rights with OCEAN

This is the second of five webinars in our Fall Discussion Series in collaboration with OCEAN. Join us for a discussion of the impacts of the ever-changing AI legal landscape on the work of researchers and the institutions that support them. Rachael Samberg will walk us through how the latest litigation affects research activities, such as text data mining, how researchers can utilize fair use to address these issues, and other considerations, such as research integrity and liability, and privacy considerations.
