The Evolving Copyright Practice: From Static Rules to Global Strategy

The Evolving Copyright Practice: From Static Rules to Global Strategy

Copyright law used to be considered a quiet, "boutique" field—but things have changed. With the rise of AI and global digital marketplaces, copyright has transformed into a high-stakes battlefield. We sit down with Kristyn Webb, a copyright litigator at Fishman Stewart, to discuss how technology is rewriting the concept of ownership and why firms are desperate for new experts in "Soft IP".

In this episode, we cover:

  • The AI Revolution: How the legal world is grappling with training data, generated outputs, and the lack of global consensus on AI copyright.
  • Global Enforcement: Why copyright lawyers need to look beyond lawsuits and work with Customs and Border Protection to stop infringing goods before they enter the country.
  • The Human Element: The importance of understanding "moral rights" and protecting an artist's legacy (and immortality).
  • Career Advice: Why you shouldn't be discouraged if you don't land an IP job immediately, and how "side quests" like clerking can make you a better litigator.
