Illuminating the Black Box: Governing AI in a Self-Governing Profession

To register for the upcoming live webinar, please check back later.

Nowhere is the gap between technology and regulation more pronounced than in AI. For lawyers, this often means navigating ethical risks without clear guidance. But staying current with AI tools isn't just useful—it’s a professional obligation. Understanding how AI intersects with legal ethics is essential, but recognizing risks like bias, opacity, or overreliance is not the same as knowing how to navigate them in practice.

This program, jointly presented by a lawyer and a software engineer, moves beyond theory to focus on practical solutions. It demystifies the processes behind AI and connects those mechanics directly to lawyers’ ethical duties, offering concrete strategies for responsible use.

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

1. Understand the origin of potential ethical hazards in an AI tool

2. Identify potential ethical hazards in the use of AI in a law practice (applying Model Rules 1.1, 1.4[b], 1.5[a], 1.6[c], 5.1, 5.2, 5.4)

3. Evaluate risk mitigation strategies
