Artificial Intelligence (AI)
The proliferation and availability of AI systems is transforming the legal landscape while the impacts of AI in business and across society will be profound and far reaching in the coming years.
Byrne Wallace Shields LLP has assembled a team of highly experienced regulatory, technology and data protection lawyers to focus on the needs of clients who are developing and using AI technology solutions, regulatory bodies and government departments who are focused on apprehending the legal, ethical and strategic implications of the developing wave of AI changes, and businesses that are going through transformations in their workforces owing to the increasing role of AI systems in operations.
Our team is highly familiar with the expanding body of relevant legislation, the fast-growing AI Industry itself and the areas in which much of the future change is going to take place. As such we are well positioned to offer practical, strategic, achievable and forward-thinking advice in this area utilising significant regulatory, technology, data protection, employment and insurance expertise.
As one of Ireland’s largest law firms we are able to draw upon a team of highly qualified lawyers who understand AI, deep learning, AI liability issues, machine learning tools, generative AI and the regulatory implications and business transformation issues likely to occur. The European Union is at the forefront in the development of a regulatory response to AI and our EU advisory lawyers are heavily involved in advising State bodies and companies in this area.
