About this course

Artificial intelligence contracts raise new concerns, as well as familiar ones. They're software agreements and so call for terms many software contract managers and lawyers know well. But certain AI systems raise unique issues, particularly generative AI and other forms of machine learning (ML). This course looks at those issues and explains the new terms they require.

And it's brand-new: recorded in February and published in March, 2024!
