Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Secret Life of the Legal Adviser: Strategies of International Law-Making
Q: What inspired you to write about the 'secret life of the legal adviser' and what do you hope readers take away from your work?
I want to reveal how powerful states use legal strategies to shape outcomes, highlight the tricks some teams deploy, and encourage more transparency so less powerful actors can understand and counter these tactics.
Controversial Contemporary Direct Effect: Directives and Beyond: CELS Lunchtime Seminar
Q: Is it time to abolish a distinction between vertical and horizontal direct effect?
The speaker suggests that the existing distinctions between vertical and horizontal direct effect may no longer makes sense due to the evolving nature of EU directives and regulations and their respective enforceability.
AI and IPR Enforcement – Challenges and Opportunities: CIPIL Spring Conference 2025
Q: What are the risks associated with using AI for IP enforcement?
The risks include the potential for human error in data input, the inability of AI to adequately understand or make nuanced decisions without human intervention, and issues with data sharing among agencies.
AI and IPR Enforcement – Challenges and Opportunities: CIPIL Spring Conference 2025
Q: Did you look into whether the right being enforced is actually valid?
Trademarks usually will be valid, but designs often won't be, and the design rights aspect is considered the weakest part of the research due to lack of cooperation from the relevant agency.
Emotional Perception AI: Are Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) Computer Programs?: CIPIL Spring Conference 2025
Q: What is the proposed framework for handling AI inventions in patent law?
The suggested framework emphasizes that AI inventions are patentable based on their technical contribution rather than the nomenclature of their categorization, proposing a review of the definitions surrounding mathematical methods and technical contributions for AI.
