Lokke Moerel: using personal data in the development and deployment of AI models

Lokke Moerel is a leading global expert on new technologies, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Big Data, and the Internet of Things, as well as Morrison & Foerster’s lead counsel on Binding Corporate Rules (BCR), with vast experience advising multinational companies in obtaining their BCR approvals throughout the EU. She has also authored the leading textbook on the subject, published by Oxford University Press.
We recorded this interview prior to the publication of the European Data Protection Board’s opinion on AI models and GDPR principles, following both a discussion paper issued by Hamburg’s Supervisory Authority (“Do LLMs contain personal data?”) and an announcement by the Irish Data Protection Commissioner that it would open an investigation into Google’s PaLM model.
A separate interview on the same topic, with Jorge Garcia Herrero, was released last week on our Spanish-language channel.
