Topics will include AI-assisted legal drafting, interpreting and validating AI outputs, responding to AI-assisted pro se filings, security and risk management considerations, and ethical obligations associated with the use of generative AI. Attendees will leave with practical guidance for leveraging AI responsibly while understanding the risks, opportunities, and evolving considerations surrounding these powerful technologies.
