Fair play in an AI era with Allens IP Partner Miriam Stiel
As artificial intelligence continues to reshape industries and business models, the conversation is shifting from possibility to responsibility.
But as AI systems become more powerful and more embedded in daily operations, the guardrails around their use matter more than ever. Questions are emerging about who is accountable when things go wrong, how to ensure models are accurate, lawful and reliable, and what fair treatment looks like—for creators, for workers and for the public.
At the same time, companies are navigating a fragmented regulatory environment, where local legal frameworks like copyright often don’t align with the global nature of AI development and deployment. In this context, striking the right balance between innovation, regulation and ethical responsibility is both a challenge and an imperative.
Moderated by Amelia McGuire of The Australian Financial Review, the 'Fair play in an AI era – regulating a thriving ecosystem' panel discussion brought together cross-industry experts to address the legal, ethical and practical considerations shaping the future of AI governance.
