Legal limits of training AI with copyrighted content

The rapid rise of generative AI has brought complex legal questions to the forefront—especially about whether and how copyrighted works may be used to train these systems. In light of recent high-profile U.S. court decisions, AI developers, technology companies, and legal teams must reexamine their data sourcing practices and risk exposure.

These decisions are also important to understand how evolving global legal standards affect AI funding, valuations, and compliance readiness in the Indian context.

Join us for a focused discussion that will:  

• Summarize the latest US court decisions on the use of copyrighted works and protected content in AI training;
• Unpack the doctrine of fair use and how it applies (or doesn’t) in the context of AI in the context of large-scale data sourcing;
