Loeb & Loeb hosted its first-ever AI Summit in New York, bringing together in-house lawyers from leading companies on Dec. 10, 2024, for an insightful day of panels. Attendees explored topics at the intersection of AI governance, regulation, intellectual property and innovation, gaining insights to navigate this rapidly evolving landscape.
The conference commenced in the morning with a panel featuring Jessica Lee, Loeb’s chief privacy & security partner and chair of the firm’s Privacy, Security & Data Innovations practice; Shoshana Rosenberg, chief AI governance and privacy officer at WSP; and Nubiaa Shabaka, global chief privacy officer and chief cyber legal officer at Adobe. The talk focused on managing AI governance, addressing key topics such as developing AI risk management frameworks, establishing internal company policies and processes for AI use, and ensuring compliance with federal and state regulatory requirements governing AI.
The morning also included a session with Loeb Litigation partner Tal Dickstein and Patent Litigation & Counseling partner Jon Thielbar, as well as Bill Rosenblatt, president of GiantSteps Medial Technology Strategies, exploring intellectual property in the new era of AI, including the copyrightability of AI-generated works and the patentability of AI technology, among other key issues. The subsequent panel with Kenneth Adler, chair of the firm’s Technology & Sourcing practice; Matthew Moore, general counsel at Created by Humans; Barbara Morrissey, deputy general counsel at Northwell Health; and Njeri Mutura, assistant general counsel at Microsoft, delved into best practices and key considerations for navigating AI contracting, including data ownership and usage, intellectual property, regulatory compliance and privacy issues.

The New York-based organization serves the state’s leading institutions to advance responsible AI research and development and unlock opportunities focused on the public good. They highlighted how Empire AI plans to provide the academic community with access to computational power beyond the reach of individual universities.
The summit wrapped up with engaging roundtable breakout discussions on topics such as AI trends in health care and wellness, the future of AI in financial services, employment law challenges in AI implementation, navigating new guild and union AI provisions, managing risks associated with deep fakes, assessing privacy and adtech risks in automated decision making, and the latest developments in AI litigation.
