Webinar on AI and Copyright Challenges for Businesses

The service heise KI PRO is hosting a webinar on December 17th at 4:00 PM about “AI & Copyright.” In this one-hour online seminar, experts will discuss key points from the current in-depth article regarding copyright issues when using generative AI tools in businesses.

With technologies like ChatGPT or Midjourney, texts, images, audio, video, and even program code can be created quickly. But who owns the rights to these generated contents? Are they protected by copyright at all? And is copyright violated when using such AI tools? Businesses face a series of open questions here.

The heise KI PRO webinar provides answers to these questions. Together with the heise legal advisor and AI law expert Joerg Heidrich, AI consultants Matthias Bastian and Benjamin Danneberg from DEEP CONTENT by heise summarize the most important contents of the in-depth article. They provide an overview of the current legal situation and show what companies need to pay attention to when they want to use generative AI.

The following questions are also addressed: Do AI tools violate copyright through their training data? Does an author lose their rights if they use AI assistance? Is there a labeling requirement for AI-generated content? And how can companies use AI effectively without encountering legal problems? Additionally, there is a discussion on whether companies must tolerate the extraction of their website content for training AI models.

The webinar content offers valuable guidance in a dynamic legal field with many uncertainties. They are based on the in-depth article from heise KI PRO. However, even without a subscription, participants receive a solid foundation for evaluating the copyright aspects of productive AI use during the event.
