In G v N [2024] HKCFI 721 (judgment date: 11 March 2024), a Hong Kong court dismissed an application to set aside the enforcement of an interim order which an arbitrator had made requiring a party to take steps to dismiss the proceedings commenced by it against the other party and the other party’s subsidiaries. In doing so, the court considered and clarified the distinction between interim measures and awards for the purpose of enforcement and setting-aside proceedings, and the separate regimes that apply to them.

Following the very recent adoption of the EU Regulation on AI (the AI Regulation) the CNIL (the French data regulator) has issued the second in its series of recommendations for the development of privacy-friendly AI models. This forms part of the CNIL's work to make players in the AI ecosystem more accountable, following its issue of its first recommendations on 8 April 2024. Although these new recommendations are open for public consultation until 1 September 2024, they provide for a useful guidance for AI systems developers, as well as an early indication of the CNIL’s regulatory direction of travel.  And in developing this guidance, the CNIL is also establishing itself as the most advanced supervisory authority in Europe in terms of the adoption of a regulatory regime designed to promote the development of AI whilst respecting personal data rights.
