We are likely entering the third wave of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) evolution, which is disrupting and revolutionizing many industries. Some worry about the unchecked expansion of AI, while others praise its potential to improve human life. This panel will present the history of AI development and delve into some of its revolutionary applications, including its impact on technology transfer. Speakers will explore applications and challenges in the practice of law, robotics, mobility, medical research, business, and social media. They will also address some provocative issues, such as ownership of IP developed by AI and privacy concerns.

TIME: 11:15 AM to 12:45 PM
TRACK: IP Trends and Successful Practices

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is ubiquitous in describing the next-generation of interactive technologies. In light of the pervasive view that AI will enhance practically every aspect of our business and personal lives (and to some degree, already is), tech transfer offices have a distinct challenge in understanding how AI can be applied to various technology sectors while maximizing IP strategies that make sense for a university. Further, there will also be challenges regarding policy, regulation and privacy concerns, as many aspects of AI will diverge from traditional models. During this session, we’ll discuss AI-related terminology, challenges in IP protection, trends in licensing amd acquisitions, and privacy concerns for AI engines and AI-related technologies across multiple domains.
