Topics Covered in this Episode:
- Big AI lawsuits are here, with billion‑dollar payouts over using stolen content to train models.
- AI "answer boxes" are stealing clicks from websites, similar to how Google once hurt Yelp's traffic.
- Large AI companies are paying some publishers for data while still fighting older copyright complaints in court.
- There's real copyright danger when AI spits out content that is almost identical to the original, including images with old watermarks.
- Entertainment brands worry that letting AI change their main characters could weaken or confuse ownership of their IP.
- In schools, using AI too much can hurt students' ability to think deeply, read long texts, and solve problems on their own.
- Virtual worlds and the metaverse raise new questions about what "private property" and "privacy" mean online.
- If a chatbot encourages someone to do something dangerous or illegal, the company could face serious legal trouble.
- Letting AI write legal documents is risky because it can invent cases and laws that do not exist.
- One of the best current uses of AI in law is sorting and summarizing huge piles of documents for big cases.
