About this talk

In the complex world of software development, generative artificial intelligence (GAI) coding tools appear as a beacon of productivity and effectiveness. When handled with precision, they brighten the path to innovation, cutting through the intricacies of coding. However, as with any unchecked flame, such tools must be carefully managed to avoid endangering an organization's valued IP, impacting its bottom line or introducing risk into an M&A transaction. Join this webinar to get an introduction to GAI coding tools and how you can minimize risk when using these in your organization. We’ll cover: - Introduction to GAI coding tools (from code completion to code generation) - Legal, operational, and M&A risks arising from GAI coding tools (e.g., IP ownership, IP infringement, cybersecurity) - Establishing a general AI policy with provisions specifically tailored to issues arising in using AI for coding - Managing risk arising from GAI coding tools - this includes a mix of technical, operational and administrative safeguards (e.g., usage policies, auditing tools, optimal selection and implementation of tools) This presentation is intended for legal and technical teams involved in software development and M&A software due diligence.
