Episode 350

My IP, or not my IP that is the question. Why AI is a copyright lawyer's biggest problem with Julius Stobbs.

EP 350 - The founder of I Am Stobbs, a specialist trademark and brand attorney firm, talks us through why even the youngest businesses should be thinking about their IP, but should spend the bare minimum on protecting it until they really need to. And when the point that they really need to protect it is likely to be.

We also get into why AI is the biggest challenge facing IP, trademark and copyright law right now and why graphic designers and photographers might want to think about getting a different job as a result.
