Responsible AI Summit North America: Day 2 - Wednesday, June 24, 2026

4:30 PM Afternoon Plenary Keynote – Caught in the Crossfire: Navigating AI State Laws, Privacy Obligations, and the Consent Gap

As U.S. state AI laws accelerate, organizations are increasingly caught between new AI-specific mandates and existing state privacy obligations. For the medical technology sector, the tension is acute: AI innovation relies on data use and third-party vendor relationships that often outpace existing consent and privacy models. In this session, Nereida Parks, AI Regional Privacy and HIPPA Officer at Olympus Corporation, unpacks the legal grey areas where state AI laws, privacy statutes, and vendor accountability collide. The discussion offers practical ways to navigate no-win compliance scenarios where risk must be actively managed, and decisions must be taken without harmonized legal guidance.

• Navigating conflicting AI state laws and privacy requirements.
• Managing consent breakdowns across AI and third-party vendors.
• Operationalizing risk-based decisions without clear legal precedent.
