The Implications of Gonzales' Decision in the Case of Google's Gonzales

In this episode of the podcast, we hear three perspectives on generative AI systems and the extent to which their makers may be exposed to potential liability. I spoke to three experts, each with their own views on questions such as whether Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act-- which has provided broad immunity to internet platforms that host third party content-- will apply to systems like ChatGPT.

Guests, in order of appearance, include: 

• Jess Miers, legal advocacy counsel at the Chamber of Progress, an industry coalition whose partners include Meta, Apple, Google, Amazon, and others;
• James Grimmelmann, a law professor at Cornell with appointments at Cornell Tech and Cornell Law School;
• Hany Farid, a professor at the University of California Berkeley with a joint appointment in the computer and information science departments.
