MIUC students participated in a webinar with LJAA on #DeepFakes: Legal and #BusinessImplications.

Speakers practicing at the intersection of law, #technology and business explained the technology behind the deep fakes and addressed #ethical and regulatory #concerns. At the “dare to ask” session where students had a seat at the (virtual) table they discussed the potential role of the business owners and #onlinecontent dissemination platforms as well as the #governments in addressing regulation of deep fakes.

Webinar was based on recent co-authored article in the Journal of #IntellectualProperty Law & Practice by Oxford University Press.
