As sustainability regulations proliferate, Moderna's legal team is turning to generative AI to keep on top of the changes. Shannon Thyme Klinger, chief legal officer at the US biotechnology company, explains: "Instead of reading 20 advisories from a dozen different law firms, we can use generative AI to summarise all that information, highlight consistencies and inconsistencies, and identify gaps." But while these new tech tools can help lawyers stay up to date on the rules, legal leaders are also playing more of a strategic role in shaping the sustainability agenda.

ADVERTISEMENT The International Seabed Authority's member nations on Friday agreed on a two-year roadmap for the adoption of deep sea mining regulations, despite conservationists' calls for a moratorium on mineral extraction they say would avert marine threats. The ISA, an intergovernmental body tasked with protecting the seabed, and its member states have spent the last decade trying to hash out a mining code for the possible exploitation of nickel, cobalt and copper in deep seabed areas that fall outside of national jurisdictions.
