AI Export Fundamentals:
What It Is, How to Use It, How to Export It
Cost: $195.00
Learn how AI works, where it supports export compliance, and how U.S. export controls apply to AI and AI-enabled products.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is everywhere. It's creating social media content, helping businesses automate complex tasks, and even supporting military operations. Yet we use the same term to describe technologies that are very different from one another.
Will AI replace trade compliance professionals? Probably not. But it is already changing how export compliance work is performed—and understanding those changes is becoming essential.
This webinar cuts through the hype to explain what AI really is, how it intersects with export controls, and what compliance professionals need to know today. We'll explore the different forms of AI you are likely to encounter, discuss where AI may be an effective tool, and examine how U.S. export control regulations apply to AI technologies and AI-enabled products.
