Product Description

A free, virtual event!

Although many people do not consider the practice of law as being on the cutting edge of technology, lawyers have relied on artificial intelligence applications for several years now. AI contributes to e-discovery, due diligence review, court sentencing evaluations, and litigation analysis. Lawyers have also begun experimenting with generative AI platforms in numerous tasks, such as producing communications and creating content for marketing.

What does this technology mean for lawyers now and in the future? How much can attorneys rely on AI in their practices? What does the future of law look like if AI plays a prominent role in it?

This Milstein Lecture presentation provides an overview of AI in the law and explores existential questions about being a lawyer when AI can perform (with varying success) many lawyerly functions.
