This week on IPWatchdog Unleashed, generative AI’s accelerating adoption raises a critical question: can organizations move quickly without compromising their intellectual property? Recorded at IPWatchdog’s Women’s IP Forum, this panel opens with introductions from Gene Quinn before Stephanie Curcio leads a discussion with Marlene Valderramma, Kendra Ervin and Rinat Shangeeta about how AI is changing enterprise risk—and what IP leaders should do now.

The panel examines AI-generated invention disclosures, the importance of identifying human contributions, and the confidentiality risks created by unauthorized “shadow AI” and increasingly autonomous tools. Practical takeaways include mapping AI use across existing workflows, limiting access to sensitive information, maintaining meaningful human review, and scrutinizing vendor terms governing training rights, output ownership and infringement indemnification.

As pressure to adopt AI intensifies, the conversation highlights the consequences of deploying tools before legal and IP teams can assess the risks. For counsel and business leaders, the challenge is to build governance that keeps pace with adoption, preserves human expertise, and brings IP into decisions before valuable rights or confidential information are put at risk.
