Description
As organizations grapple with how to build, deploy, and govern AI responsibly, the legal world offers a fascinating proving ground. From natural language models that can review millions of documents in seconds to new debates about authorship, copyright, and ownership of AI-generated work, law is both a testing lab and a warning light for every data-driven discipline. In this session, we’ll explore how AI is transforming the practice of law, through tools that automate contract review, legal discovery, and case analysis, while also reshaping the very boundaries of what it means to create and be accountable in an AI-driven world. These examples aren’t just relevant to attorneys. They illuminate the same questions facing healthcare, manufacturing, finance, and higher education: How do we ensure transparency and traceability when AI makes or informs decisions? Who owns and is liable for content or outcomes produced by generative systems? What can the legal sector’s early experimentation teach us about governance and risk management across industries? Join us for a discussion at the intersection of data science, policy, and human judgment, where the lessons emerging from the legal field can help shape the next generation of responsible, explainable AI.
