Copyright and AI is a three-part podcast series from
Fasken's Perspectives podcast, exploring how Canadian
law is grappling with the rise of generative artificial
intelligence.
Jay Kerr-Wilson, who
leads Fasken's copyright practice, and McGill University

authorship, ownership, consent, and the legal lifespan of AI
systems.
Listen to this exclusive series as they unpack the legal and
philosophical challenges shaping the future of copyright in
