“Right now, we have this great opportunity to create a balanced and reasonable law that works for an industry that also protects individuals.”

In this episode, Natalie welcomes Anna Westfelt, the Head of Gunderson Dettmer’s Data Privacy Practice, to discuss the growth of AI technology, the possible negative and positive effects, and how individuals can prepare themselves for this changing landscape.

Gunderson boasts an emerging company and venture capital (EC/VC) firm focused on, as Natalie puts it, “building the firm of the future.” For example, generative AI can potentially turn data into a gold mine. As the world continues to receive more regulatory updates in the privacy space with AI, Anna’s team is working diligently to provide counsel and education to clients who are eager to leverage these powerful tools with privacy and security at the core of their development.

Tune in to learn more about generative AI regulations and what the Gunderson Dettmer team expects on the horizon.
