Abstract: Abstract The meteoric rise of GenAI applications like ChatGPT has sparked intense discussions around the technology’s legal and ethical implications. As these powerful AI systems are increasingly integrated across various domains, it is crucial that we thoroughly examine the associated legal and ethical challenges. This chapter provides a timely analysis of the key legal considerations surrounding intellectual property, liability, and privacy when deploying ChatGPT applications. Additionally, it delves into pivotal ethical issues, including transparency, accountability, unintended harms, and human values alignment. While focusing on ChatGPT as an illustrative example of GenAI applications, the discussions apply broadly to any similar model or application. By comprehensively exploring emerging legal and ethical dimensions, this chapter aims to promote responsible AI innovation that fosters trust and broader societal benefit. The dynamic policy landscape regarding AI is also analyzed across diverse global jurisdictions. Overall, as generative AI progresses at an unprecedented pace, paying close attention to shifting legal and ethical dimensions will be indispensable for sustainable and ethical technological advancement.
