Art & AI Panel: Who Owns Creativity? (CLE)

May 15 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm

About
As generative AI reshapes creative industries—from visual art to music and writing—it brings complex legal and ethical challenges. This panel brings together experts at the crossroads of law and creativity to explore authorship, ownership, and the evolving role of AI in the arts.

Topics include fair use, training data, copyrightability, and market disruption. Panelists will discuss how artists are using AI, legal risks and remedies, and what emerging legislation means for creators.

Whether you’re an artist, attorney, or just curious about AI’s impact on creativity, this session offers sharp insights and practical takeaways—plus a Q&A to engage directly with the panel.
