Bilzin Sumberg's Kenneth Duvall and Kelly Ruane Melchiondo write: In a recent federal case from New York, the court dealt a blow to plaintiffs suing over data breaches. The plaintiffs had filed a putative class action suit, alleging that they (and others like them) had been harmed by the alleged exposure of their personal and financial information due to a March 2023 data breach of the American Bar Association (ABA). #databreaches #privacypolicies #dataprotection #cyberattacks

McDonnell Boehnen Hulbert & Berghoff LLP's Aaron Gin and Yuri Levin-Schwartz write: This year has witnessed a rapid increase in #legislation seeking to study and regulate machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) models. So far in 2024, Congress has doubled the number of proposed bills seeking to study and regulate AI compared with 2023. The jump has been even more dramatic on the state level. In 2023, legislators in 30 states, Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia proposed around 130 bills regarding machine learning and AI. As of September 9, 2024, legislators in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, the US. Virgin Islands and the District of Columbia have proposed almost 500 bills. #artificialintelligence #ai #machinelearning #regulation

From Bradley Arant Boult Cummings LLP: Here’s a refresher: Discriminating against a subclass of a sex (e.g., older women or black women) is still discrimination. In McCreight v. AuburnBank, the Eleventh Circuit clarified a few things for the lawyers related to the different theories of liability, but the court also provided a good refresher on “sex-plus” discrimination, or discrimination based on a subclass of sex. #sexdiscrimination #agediscrimination #hostileworkenvironment #retaliation #titlevii

From Venable LLP: Recently, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and the Copyright Office have been tasked with addressing the impact of new artificial intelligence tools on copyright and patent protection. While both offices are continuing to develop reports on this subject, both have already published initial guidance on artificial intelligence copyright and patent applications and registrations where the subject matter was developed using an AI tool. Some key takeaways from each Office’s guidance are provided below. #uspto #artificialintelligence #ai #copyright #patents

Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton LLP's John Carroll and Jake Walker write: Leading up to the U.S. presidential election this November, our Antitrust & Competition team continues to offer insights into what antitrust enforcement may look like under the next presidential administration. ... Under another potential Trump administration, enforcement priorities and agency leadership would be tough to predict. As our guideposts, we will analyze antitrust enforcement under Trump’s first term, 2024 campaign rhetoric, and antitrust priorities laid out in Heritage Foundation’s 2025 Presidential Transition Project (“Project 2025”), with the understanding that former President Trump has disavowed Project 2025. #antitrust #enforcementactions #presidentialelection #politics

Harris Beach PLLC's Brendan Palfreyman writes: While states such as Colorado (and, perhaps shortly, California) have led the pack when it comes to AI regulation, the state of New York won’t be left behind. There are currently more than 60 bills pending in New York that bear some relation to artificial intelligence. If you’re curious about which way the legislative winds are blowing in New York, but don’t have the time to sift through the muck, this alert does the heavy lifting for you. Below are the four pending AI bills in New York that have gained the most traction so far. #artificialintelligence #ai #newyork #legislation #regulation

From McDermott Will & Emery: On September 23, 2024, the US Department of Justice (DOJ) updated its Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Programs guidance (ECCP). Changes to the ECCP build on themes that the DOJ has been emphasizing for some time, including risk assessment, compliance empowerment, effective reporting structures, and continuous improvement. #doj #corporatecompliance #guidance

Maynard Nexsen's Josh Duvall writes: With stiff competition for federal contracts, disappointed offerors will often utilize the bid protest system to challenge agency evaluations and source selection decisions in hopes of overturning an award decision. This is particularly true where a procurement is strategically significant or where the contract value is high. When facing a bid protest, awardees should intervene to defend their awards (or, at minimum, to keep an eye on the protest process) and to protect their many other interests during the protest process. #bidprotests #federalcontractors #governmentcontractors
