Unsettled in the Courts: The Legal Ramifications of AI in Practice

Description

AI and substantive Law

AI features front and center in courtrooms and firms around the globe, playing the starring role in many substantive legal issues and cases whose outcomes will have significant impact on how law is practiced and how justice is administered. The limitations of AI such as bias, hallucinations and lack of transparency are often elevated as paramount concerns. But not to worry! Humans still have a role to play, especially in light of some of the ethical issues like antitrust collusion, defamation and liability coming to the forefront as a result of active litigation and legislative efforts.

Join us for this live webinar when we'll discuss an overview of the issues, the cases and why they're important, then put this into perspective with a discussion of what the future might look like for practitioners and the ethical implications now and moving forward.
