You can tell by the rise of generative AI that it has generated a lot of interesting operational and legal questions. To piggyback off my colleague, Fatimeh (see her posts here and here), I wanted to look in on a specific legal dispute involving AI and copyright.

Nearly every profession has been disrupted by the ability to “Google” the answer to a question. How do I fix a faucet leak? Google a how-to video instead of calling the plumber. How can I stop my knee from hurting? Ask Google instead of your doctor. The same scenario happens in law, any lawyer will
A lot of the businesses we work with are experimenting with AI tools – drafting content, summarizing data, even building internal workflows. And understandably so: these tools are accessible, affordable, and increasingly powerful.
But we’re also seeing a familiar pattern emerge. AI is easy to use, and just as easy to misuse.
If you’re a
A recent Patent Trial and Appeal Board decision related to hybrid quantum computing paves the way for more quantum computing-related patents, and potential litigation.
Quantum computing is an important and evolving form of computing that has yet to be truly realized. Classical computing is, fundamentally, governed by the ability to store information in a
Representatives from various food agencies met in Chile recently to discuss the use of technology to improve food safety systems.
The sixth annual meeting of the International Heads of Food Agencies Forum (IHFAF) was held in Santiago earlier this month. The forum was attended by officials from more than 18 countries and international institutions.

Girl Scout cookies, beloved for varieties like Thin Mints and Samoas, draw millions of buyers annually, but a 2024 study and lawsuit have raised concerns about heavy metals, pesticides, and sustainability, challenging the treat’s wholesome reputation.
A 2024 study conducted by GMOScience and Moms Across America analyzed 25 Girl Scout cookie samples, detecting trace amounts
These days there are two topics that dominate legal conferences, presentations, and CLEs: artificial intelligence (AI) and Loper Bright. You will doubtless see us frequently bloviate about the former, but today’s case – American Clinical Laboratory Ass’n v. Food and Drug Administration, 2025 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 59869, 2025 WL 964236 (E.D. Tex. March 31, 2025) –
I’ve been thinking about the clash between generative AI and copyright law, particularly in light of OpenAI’s claim that restricting access to copyrighted material could end the AI race altogether.
It’s a provocative statement. But it’s also a false binary. Because we’ve been here before – at the edge of a new medium, a
As generative artificial intelligence (AI) continues to transform industries, its impact on patent law is raising critical legal questions. From the recognition of AI as an inventor and potential infringement risks posed by the AI-generated outputs to the use of AI in patent validity challenges, the legal landscape is rapidly evolving. This article explores how generative AI
The UK’s Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”) is seeking industry feedback on its new draft guideline on individual messenger ribonucleic acid (“mRNA”) cancer immunotherapies (the “Draft Guidance”). Building on the success of mRNA vaccine technology in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, the technology is now being adapted to target diseases such as cancer.
