◎ Lai, Wenchi "When TikTok sounds, parents raise their children in vain" - beyond mocking TikTok's influence on teenagers, we must also acknowledge the fact that audio-visual media spreads more easily than text. Many adults often lose track of time scrolling through short videos on their phones, and elderly people frequently share video files with each other via LINE. Whether actively or passively, enterprises need to enter the field of digital audio-visual creation in order to reach more users with their brands, products, or services. However, compared to text, audio-visual creation has not only higher creative barriers but also more complex copyright issues. The following provides a preliminary explanation of matters requiring attention in the use and management of corporate audio-visual creation. 1. Audio-Visual Creation Usually Involves Multiple Works From advertisements and short videos to TV series and films, all are "audiovisual works" protected by copyright law.

Dear directors and executives, good afternoon. I am delighted to be invited by the Taiwan Directors Association to share legal issues related to AI with you at Chia Hsin Cement Corporation. Today's topic is "Governance and Challenges of Intellectual Property Compliance in the AI-Driven Era." With the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, corporate boards are facing unprecedented governance challenges, and the role of boards is also transforming. We will explore this from four perspectives: First, what governance challenges AI technology development brings to boards and how board roles are changing.

Finally, the responsibilities and practical directions boards should undertake in the AI era across four dimensions: governance, transparency, digital, and innovation. I hope through these insights to help you prepare comprehensively in corporate compliance and governance. I. Governance Challenges and Board Role⋯ 
Data Governance is a collection of activities (planning, monitoring, and executing) that exercise authority and control over data asset management. The data governance function guides how other data management functions should be executed. Under this definition, corporate data governance refers to an organization's management and control of data during its operations to ensure data quality, availability, security, and regulatory compliance. The purpose of corporate data governance is to enable companies to effectively manage their data resources, enhance decision-making processes, and improve business operational efficiency. From a legal perspective, it concerns how data from front-end collection to back-end utilization or sharing can serve the company while avoiding illegal data collection, processing, and utilization, as well as how to avoid misuse, misjudgment, leakage, or other regulatory compliance risks. "Data is the oil of the 21st century," but data and oil differ substantially in nature. First, oil is a finite natural resource that inevitably diminishes with extraction; data, however, becomes increasingly easier to⋯ 
I. To Prevent U.S. AI Chips from Being Exported to China, the U.S. Department of Commerce Will Enforce Strongly and Recommends Related Companies Implement Know Your Customer (KYC) Due Diligence Just as U.S. President Biden was about to leave office in early 2025, he proposed the latest AI chip export control plan—the "Interim Final Rule on Artificial Intelligence Diffusion." The public will have 120 days to submit comments, and the industry will have one year after the new law's implementation to adjust to meet new security standards. According to this latest AI chip export control rule, the U.S. divides AI chip exports into three tiers. The first tier of key allies and partners includes Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, and the United Kingdom, who will not be subject to export controls. Countries listed by the U.S. as third-tier controls include approximately 22 countries such as⋯
