Welcome to "AI or Not," the podcast where we explore the intersection of digital transformation and real-world wisdom, hosted by the accomplished Pamela Isom. With over 25 years of experience guiding leaders in corporate, public, and private sectors, Pamela, the CEO and Founder of IsAdvice & Consulting LLC, is a veteran in successfully navigating the complex realms of artificial intelligence, innovation, cyber issues, governance, data management, and ethical decision-making.

Discover how artificial intelligence can be molded into a trustworthy ally in our society with insights from our distinguished guests, Hal Daumé and Amy  Cyphert. Hal, a trailblazer from the University of Maryland, shares his fascinating transformation from a purely technical AI expert to someone deeply engaged with its societal implications. Meanwhile, Amy, a legal scholar from West Virginia University, brings her unique perspective from Carnegie Mellon, offering a compelling narrative on how law and technology must interface to ensure AI's responsible evolution. Together, we unravel the tapestry of cross-disciplinary collaboration needed to forge AI systems that command trust.

Venture into the murky waters of AI regulation, where copyright dilemmas and intellectual property rights present significant challenges. We examine the tightrope artists walk when using AI in their creativity, juxtaposing heightened innovation with the current inadequacies of copyright law. Through this discourse, we highlight the urgent need for a broader regulatory framework, emphasizing the power of executive orders and the necessity for global cooperation in AI governance. As we stress the vital role of local institutions and elected officials in shaping these policies, this episode promises to equip you with a nuanced understanding of AI's legal landscape and its societal impact.
