California Lawyers Association: The Copyright Office Comes to California

Partner Meaghan Kent will speak at the Copyright Office Comes to California conference on the panel Artificial Intelligence and Copyright. The discussion will provide an overview of litigation, policy, legislative, and regulatory issues regarding artificial intelligence (AI) and copyrights—including the use of copyrighted works to train models, the question of whether generative AI outputs constitute copyright infringement, and the question of how much human authorship is needed to copyright AI-assisted outputs. The Artificial Intelligence and Copyright panel will take place from 10:15 AM - 11:15 AM PT.

The Intellectual Property Law Section of the California Lawyers Association will host the Copyright Office Comes to California program at the Oracle Conference Center in Redwood City, California. The hybrid event is one of the premier IP conferences in the state, where attendees can hear from representatives of the US Copyright Office. It will cover a wide range of cutting-edge and compelling topics of copyright law and feature a Q&A with the Register of Copyrights Shira Perlmutter.
