Growing evidence links heavy social‑media use to rising anxiety, bullying, and sextortion among kids, and state lawmakers are racing to respond. In this interview, Harvard Law School's Leah Plunkett—reporter for the Uniform Law Commission's child‑influencer act—and University of Virginia family‑law scholar Naomi Cahn examine how new statutes seek to verify age, require parental consent, and redesign feeds to curb addictive features.Plunkett and Cahn compare Florida's and Utah's sweeping under‑14 account bans with New York's pending “SAFE for Kids Act,” explore design mandates such as late‑night notification curfews, and explain why long‑standing COPPA rules leave teens largely unprotected. They unpack First Amendment and privacy challenges already moving through the courts, highlight emerging “digital Coogan” laws that safeguard child‑creator earnings, and note international moves—from Australia's proposed under‑16 ban to the U.K.'s Age‑Appropriate Design Code.(Credits: General 1.5 hrs | MCLE available to TalksOnLaw “Premium” or “Podcast” members.

Autonomous lethal weapons, often sensationalized as “killer robots,” are no longer confined to science fiction—they are a rapidly advancing reality in modern warfare. In this conversation, Georgetown Law Professor Mitt Regan, an expert on the laws of war and international law, delves into the profound ethical and legal implications of AI-enabled weapon systems for both current conflicts and the future of warfare. Central to the conversation are the legal frameworks governing AI-enabled weapons under international humanitarian law. Professor Regan examines principles such as distinction, proportionality, and precaution, showing how these are tested by systems that use AI to identify and engage targets. Significant gaps in legal frameworks persist, including the absence of a unified international agreement specifically addressing autonomous weaponry.Mitt Regan is a professor of law at Georgetown Law and an expert on both national security and international humanitarian law.

In this episode, Ken sits down with Nathan Miller, CEO and Founder of Miller Ink Nathan Miller is the CEO and Founder of Miller Ink, a Los Angeles-based strategic and crisis communications firm that partners with top litigators to manage high-profile cases with significant media exposure. Prior to founding Miller Ink in 2013, Nathan was the Director of Speechwriting for Israel's Permanent Mission to the UN, serving as senior communications adviser and chief speechwriter for Ambassador Ron Prosor.

What you'll learn about in this episode: 1. How to Build an Effective Communication Strategy The first pillar of any successful communication strategy is understanding the objective, the audience, and the message With your strategy in place, you can start leveraging all available channels to craft the narrative you want to showcase to potential clients and online audiences 2. Why a Diverse Media Strategy is crucial for Success Combining traditional media, personal platforms, and strategic ads gives firms a strong advantage in delivering their message Leveraging both digital and local outlets is essential for reaching audiences, clients, and industry peers 3. How Crisis Management Protects Your Firm's Reputation It's essential to have a team ready to support lawyers who may lack the time, resources, or familiarity to navigate a crisis effectively With the potential for intense media scrutiny, it's crucial to have a well-defined message that addresses concerns beyond just the legal setting. 4. Why Staying Ahead in a Shifting Media Landscape Matters You need to think like a chess player. Anticipate multiple moves ahead in your media strategy, especially in high-stakes narratives, or you'll get left behind. It's important to embrace modern strategies like using AI, social media, and algorithm trends, while still holding onto the core principles that have always guided you. 5. How Specialized Communication Experts Drive Lasting Success Hiring professionals with law-specific expertise helps to build successful legal campaigns and audience connection. Don't underestimate the value of specialized communication when planning to grow your business.

Large language models (LLMs) are trained on vast, nearly unfathomable amounts of data—data that is now reshaping the very fields from which it was sourced, including literature, journalism, music, and photography. As a result, these models have sparked high-stakes litigation and raised novel legal questions about ownership and intellectual property, both in the AI training process and the output they produce. In this conversation, we explore the intersection of AI training and copyright law with Professor Shyamkrishna (Shyam) Balganesh of Columbia Law School, a prominent legal scholar who has been closely examining these emerging issues.(Credits: General 1.5 | MCLE available to TalksOnLaw "Premium" or "Podcast" members.
