Overview
Why You Should Attend
The proliferation of applications using artificial intelligence in business and the home has become a major trend. Yet, the capabilities and risks of using artificial intelligence has only recently become a concern for most lawyers. Laws and regulations applicable to technology and its use continue to evolve. Are you able to counsel your clients on the rapidly emerging technology tools today? Do you have best practices in place to track and monitor the continuous threats most organizations see every day? Is your organization considering using AI tools to enhance productivity or your legal practice? Are you currently able to advise your clients regarding generative AI, and how to contract for AI services? Are you aware of the differences in privacy and social media laws and regulations between the U.S. and the European Union? Are you prepared to lead the legal discussions on technology’s impact and spot issues that may affect your client?
Your clients’ changing businesses and the legal profession demands that you understand technology and have a command of technical vocabulary, as well as the relevant law. A lawyer has an ethical obligation to understand the legal issues arising from his or her client’s adoption of rapidly changing technology and to implement technology solutions in court and other arenas. Without some knowledge of the nuts and bolts of the technology clients are using, a lawyer will not provide effective advice, and the lawyer who understands their client’s technology and can speak that language will stand out as a trusted counselor.
This unique program will give lawyers the necessary background to become more knowledgeable advocates in today’s cutting-edge technology-related matters and understand the emerging trends in this field.
