Media Companies: To Litig-AI-te or License? How to Decide in Generative AI Cases (& The State of the Law)

This episode features host Peter Csathy's recent roundtable discussion from Digital Hollywood's "AI Summer Summit" about the state and status of copyright law and litigation in the world of generative AI (and whether unlicensed scraping is infringement), the current status of the key cases, and how media companies and publishers should decide to litigate -- or to license their content instead.

Peter is joined by Chad Hummel of McKool Smith, perhaps the best and most successful IP and complex litigator on the planet, and by Dr. Moiya McTier, the spokesperson for the Human Artistry Campaign (an organization that represents over 200 media and entertainment organizations). 

It's an important discussion for anyone in the creative and tech communities - and is both insightful and engaging.
