Ogletree Deakins Podcasts

In this installment of Ogletree Deakins’ TECHPLACE™ Talk series, Jenn Betts, who is co-chair of the firm’s Technology Practice Group, sits down with Justin Tarka and Patty Shapiro to talk about the European Union’s AI Act—which is the first comprehensive law in the world regulating artificial intelligence (AI). The speakers discuss how the new law regulates AI in employment with a risk-based approach. In particular, they discuss potential risks of using AI for screening employment applications, recruitment processes such as interviews, and related concerns surrounding employment exposure to sensitive and personal information.
