Everything Everywhere All at Once - A Global Snapshot of AI Regulation for the Entertainment Industry

Governments are playing catch-up with AI, implementing new ideas on how to regulate this innovative industry. This increases legal, ethical, and reputational risk for talent and entertainment companies operating in the U.S., and globally. This session reviews major global regulatory and litigation developments affecting AI development, training, and use, particularly where biometrics, identity/likeness, copyright, and disclosure obligations intersect with synthetic or AI-assisted content. Panelists will highlight key regulators, common enforcement triggers, and how expectations are emerging in key territories through guidance, investigations, and lawsuits. Attendees will leave with practical insight to allocate risk and support responsible innovation within the entertainment industry.
