AI-Powered Chatbots: Mythical Super Creature or Legal Trojan Horse?

In collaboration with IBJ
With ChatGPT 4, the world saw for the first time what AI-powered chatbots are capable of: writing a love poem, drafting a geography presentation or explaining the principles of patent law so a 4 year old can understand, anything seems within reach. No wonder that time-strapped workers would consider outsourcing part of their assignments to these user-friendly robots.

IJE/IBJ webinar - ‘Collaboration Agreements’. The challenge of reconciling the interests and rights of all the parties concerned: Some Tips & Tricks

It is also, and primarily, a matter between companies and knowledge centres (such as universities and other research institutions). In addition, external financing is sometimes required in the early stages, to bridge the costs related to the R&D activities.
