The continued proliferation of AI-based technologies, including generative AI platforms, presents a variety of legal challenges for companies of all sizes and in all industry sectors. Baker Donelson's dedicated AI Team is a multidisciplinary group of attorneys who have considerable experience with AI-based technologies and industry-specific experience. The Firm's AI Team includes members of multiple practices, including Technology; Data Protection, Privacy and Cybersecurity; Intellectual Property; Labor and Employment; Health Care; and Advocacy.
