Event Details

Join Karman Lucero, Senior Fellow at Yale Law School's Paul Tsai China Center, and Han Wu, a Partner at King & Wood, on May 18 for the first event in a new series Comparing American and Chinese Legal Approaches to AI Governance. This session will examine how the two countries regulate both AI's inputsโ€”such as intellectual property and personal dataโ€”and its outputs, including deepfakes and misinformation. Through case studies drawn from real legal disputes, they will explore how these issues were addressed in the countries where they arose and how they might have been handled differently under the other nation's legal system. As technology increasingly shapes global politics, this event offers a timely opportunity to better understand two influential and contrasting regulatory models.
