Being fortunate enough to be part of the Leading Talent team – something that is so incredibly dedicated, innovative, and forward-thinking – it has become apparent over the years that in order to succeed at whatever you desire, one must truly embody the fundamentals of teamwork, innovation, perseverance, as well as dedication.

What does this have to do with technology or law?

Having both debated and deliberated the advancements of AI, the technology industry, and law, it is certain that they all have two distinguishing attributes in common: adaptability and consistency.

Starting with the technology industry and its relation to legal frameworks, Jane Wakefield states in her 2023 BBC article, ‘Is AI about to transform the legal profession?’:

No-one, it seems, can decide whether the benefits – such as automating written tasks, and sifting through vast amounts of information in seconds – outweigh the problems of biased data, and a lack of accuracy and accountability.

In relation to previous Tech News Thursday articles (referencing other news articles), there were questions on whether or not the issues surrounding false claims (ignited by artificial intelligence) can potentially become a wider issue for the new US, UK, and EU treaty and cyber threats continuously evolving as criminals become increasingly innovative. Businesses must stay vigilant and proactive in safeguarding their assets, just as individuals must stay aware and proactive in ensuring their data is safe.

It can be said, however, that it is undeniable that the advancements of AI has indeed benefitted our lives in more ways than one could imagine. Being able to enter a store and leave with your groceries by simply paying via phone or even via palm (Palm scanning: Tencent sees a future where everyone gets by with just a swipe of the hand | CNN Business) with or without human interaction is an evident example of the ease and swiftness that AI has brought to our daily lives.

This, undoubtedly, then does raise concerns on personal data, but referring back to the fact that law (in light of technology) is also incredibly adaptable with change. A clear demonstration of this is the state of California establishing the ‘Delete Act’, formally known as the California Senate Bill 362 or abbreviated as SB 362, which has given consumers the ability to remove their personal data from all state-based data brokers. One of the purposes of the Act was to provide Californians with more control over how their data and privacy are being used (just as there was previously a right for Californians to request to have their data deleted under the current laws). With the new bill, it ensures that all privacy brokers are registered with the CPPA (California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA)) and requires the CPPA itself to regulate the way in which privacy brokers operate in terms of making the deletion of personal privacy easier and more accessible.

Ultimately, embodying the lessons taught at whatever stage you are at in your career, no matter the position or industry, one can truly say for certain that it should be fundamental to embrace teamwork, innovation, change, dedication, and even faults in order to begin your success journey.
