DESCRIPTION: This session stresses the necessity of embracing state-of-the-art technology and its impact on both legal practice and clients. It defines artificial intelligence (AI), discusses AI's role in personal life, tools incorporating AI in law firms, associated benefits and risks, and emerging AI-related client risks. Despite fears of job loss, studies show that AI will create more opportunities, enhance profits, lower costs, and improve risk management for law firms.
