Description

Artificial intelligence (AI) has exploded in the entertainment space, and the growth potential is nearly limitless. While electronic games have used AI for some time now, new AI systems, from Siri and Cortana to Amazon Echo and Google Home, continue to shift the landscape and bridge entertainment uses to other areas, such as home and task automation. The future may bring everything from virtual actors to AIcreated ‘user’ content to AI compositions. Come and explore existing entertainment AI and possible future developments in AI along with the legal issues they currently present and may pose in the future. Can AI hold a copyright to a composition? Can AI ‘perform’ in a legal sense? These and other questions will be explored by the panel.
