I’m an author, typographer, programmer, and lawyer. Like millions of other authors, artists, and programmers, my work was copied for the training datasets of commercial generative-AI systems without consent, credit, or compensation. The tech world told us to adapt. Wish granted—after 12 years away, I reactivated my law license and invented the first set of cases in the US challenging the legality of generative AI. I now serve as co-counsel, representing fellow authors, artists, and programmers. I also provide legal and technical research and consulting to other law firms. I have served as an expert witness on typographic matters. I have a visual-studies degree from Harvard University and a law degree from UCLA. I live in Los Angeles with my wife Jessica, an appellate lawyer.
