FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT? Cardozo AELJ Symposium

FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT? STRIKING THE RIGHT BALANCE BETWEEN INNOVATION, PUBLICITY RIGHTS, AND COPYRIGHT

As AI-generated voices, deepfake performances, and digital replicas become more sophisticated, they challenge the boundaries of copyright law and raise urgent questions about publicity rights, artistic control, and free expression. This symposium, hosted by the Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal, will bring together leading scholars, industry experts, and legal practitioners to explore how existing laws address these issues—and whether new regulations, such as the NO FAKES Act, offer a viable path forward.

Featuring two expert panels, the event will examine AI-generated “sound-alikes” and the limitations of copyright law, as well as the broader legal and policy implications of AI’s impact on identity and creative industries. Join us for an engaging discussion on how the law can balance technological innovation with the protection of individual rights in the digital age.

This program of two panels is approved for up to 3.0 transitional/non-transitional New York State CLE credits in the category “Areas of Professional Practice.” To receive CLE credits for a panel, you must attend that part of the program “live.” We cannot award CLE credits for watching a recorded version of any part of this program. We only award New York State CLE credits.
