As my tea is getting cold, I thought I'd bundle these three AI posts together in one highlight. In the first post, Olga Mack writes, "Corporate counsel should take a proactive approach to understand the legal risks associated with AI, aware of the importance of ensuring compliance with applicable laws and regulations."

When it comes to software tools, Pierre Chamberland writes, "When it is used inappropriately, or put in the hands of the wrong people, any tool can be abused." Amen to that! Lastly Stephen Embry referencing Richard Susskind's comments that "AI predictions are not based on 'thinking' like humans. And it's wrong to think of what they do in this way. AI predictions are instead based merely on vast amounts of data." Maybe we should look into switching the A from "artificial" to "augmented". Read more at:
