How Does AI Work? A Beginner Friendly Guide to Artificial Intelligence
If you have ever asked how does AI works, the short answer is simple: AI works by finding patterns in data and using those patterns to make predictions, decisions, or generate new outputs.

Risk #6: Valuation Under Pressure: Market Stress and the Enforcement Lens
Markets have recently been experiencing heightened volatility and credit availability has tightened, which has placed valuation practices under unusual pressure from regulators and investors. The events of the past several years, including rising interest rates, geopolitical turmoil and the impacts of artificial intelligence tools, among other issues, have amplified the inherent challenges of valuing illiquid assets and sparked greater regulatory scrutiny. This is particularly true when marks affect fees paid by investors, or the prices at which they invest in or redeem from a fund.
Lending Platform Hit with AI-Related Securities Suit
One of the interesting features of the rise of AI has been the advent of “AI-and” businesses – that is, businesses whose strategy is to apply AI tools to traditional business models. When “AI-and” business results fall short, securities litigation has sometimes followed.

A copy of the new Upstart Holdings complaint can be found here.

AI, Work Product, and the Protective Order Problem:What Morgan v. V2X, Inc. Means for Every Litigator
When a corporate defendant moved to restrict a pro se plaintiff’s AI use in discovery, the court didn’t just rule on the motion — it wrote the most comprehensive framework on AI and work product protection in federal court yet, and the protective order standard it set will follow every litigator using AI, not just…
SEC Enforcement Results for FY 2025
This is press release that would not have been written by judge Margaret Ryan if she was still serving as the Director of Enforcement. She only lasted six months with the rapid down-sizing and lack of enforcement at the Securities and Exchange Commission.
I was stunned to see the SEC attack its prior stewardship in…
UK: ICO Report on Automated Decision-Making in Recruitment
Organisations increasingly use AI-enabled tools throughout the recruitment process. These tools screen CVs, score suitability, run online assessments, and analyse behaviour. They can speed up hiring and may help reduce the human bias found in traditional recruitment. However, their use often clashes with data protection rules that limit decisions based only on automated processing. On…
