Mitigating the Liabilities of Artificial Intelligence in NLP

As Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing become more widely adopted, the risks of AI techniques for NLP are increasing too. From algorithmic discrimination to data leakage and hacking, AI applications of NLP can create a host of unanticipated harms for the organizations that employ it.

This talk, presented by the co-founders of bnh.ai, a boutique law firm focused on AI and analytics, will provide a framework for responding to these liabilities.

Participants will leave with an understanding of both the legal and technical sources of AI risk – and how to mitigate them in the real world.
