In an article published in Kluwer Arbitration Blog, Senior Associate Sam Winter-Barker dives into JAMS recently announced Artificial Intelligence Disputes Clause and Rules, the first set of arbitration rules published by an arbitral institution, aimed at addressing the complexities of AI.
Excerpt: “The JAMS AI Rules are a step forward from arbitral institutions to prepare for the inevitable rise of disputes arising out of the use of AI. Enhanced confidentiality safeguards will be welcomed by parties that are concerned about the disclosure of highly sensitive, confidential information, such as details of their internal AI systems and the data those systems use and generate. Further, attempts to streamline the arbitral process – including short timelines for production of evidence and for the hearing, as well as limiting AI-related expert evidence – may also be welcomed by parties seeking quicker resolutions of disputes at lower costs.”
