Artificial Intelligence remains a complex and rapidly evolving technology. Since the second edition of this book, Generative AI models such as ChatGPT have made a seismic impact on the AI industry and society as a whole. Legislative and policy initiatives move closer to finalisation, particularly the EU's groundbreaking Artificial Intelligence Act which is likely to have a global impact on regulation of AI and machine learning systems. In a fast moving specialist area, it is essential to keep pace. If you are lost and need clear direction, 'Artificial Intelligence - The Practical Legal Issues' will guide you through the policy updates and implications of existing AI technologies and provide a practical and easily digestible path to the real issues you need to consider as a legal practitioner.This book contains a grounding of what differentiates artificially intelligent systems from traditional technology and explains the differences between AI, Machine Learning and Deep Learning, and what makes Generative AI (and by association, foundation models) so different. Understanding what AI systems can and cannot do is also essential to developing a clear legal awareness of the technology. From these introductory foundations, you'll learn how the deployment of AI technology creates issues and risks that need to be considered carefully and that permeate across causation, intellectual property ownership, confidentiality and data protection, recruitment and even criminal law.This Third Edition contains an entirely new chapter on one of the most exciting emergent AI technologies, Generative AI. AI Ethics and the new EU Artificial Intelligence Act are also explained in depth as well as commentary on the UK's vision for AI as reflected in its 2023 AI Governance White Paper.ABOUT THE AUTHORJohn Buyers is a commercial solicitor and partner at Osborne Clarke LLP, an international law firm which specialises in advising high technology clients, or businesses that are transitioning through a process of digitalisation.

The public policy exception has often been relied on by national courts in India and other jurisdictions as a grounds for refusing enforcement of foreign arbitral awards. In this context the exception has been given varying interpretations. This book deals with the question of whether the scope of the public policy exception as a grounds for refusing enforcement should be legislatively defined, or rather left to judicial interpretation. It does this by using recent amendments to the Indian arbitration law as an example, and conducting comparative law research with approaches taken in both major common and civil law jurisdictions. It then evaluates the benefits - disadvantages- and the rationale for having such a definition. It finally evaluates what should be the ideal statutory scope of the exception.
