Artificial Intelligence and Automated Systems

The pace of technology development in the areas of automation and artificial intelligence is growing at an exponential rate.  While many of the underlying technologies have existed for decades, interest in their proliferation has never been greater, and appears likely only to increase for the foreseeable future.  The growing use of these technologies in all aspects of life presents a wide variety of legal challenges in an evolving regulatory landscape, not only for those who may be developing products in the field, but also for anyone who may use such technologies as part of their business.  Gibson Dunn’s Artificial Intelligence and Automated Systems (AI/AS) Practice Group brings together the talents and experience of lawyers throughout Gibson Dunn, collectively possessing a diverse array of technical and legal expertise and skills, and is well-positioned to assist our clients in identifying, addressing, and responding to these challenges.
