Description:
Artificial Intelligence is changing the game for legal professionals, but with great power comes great responsibility…and maybe a little schadenfreude? Join us for an eye-opening CLE that dives into the ethical pitfalls of using AI in the legal field—and how you can avoid them while harnessing AI’s full potential.
In this session, we’ll explore the dark side of AI, highlighting common misuses that could land you in hot water (like a suspension of your license to practice). You’ll gain a clear understanding of the ethical boundaries every legal professional must navigate when integrating AI into their practice. We’ll also cover the best practices for ethically leveraging AI to enhance your work without crossing the line, as well as provide practical takeaways you can implement right away to use AI responsibly while keeping your clients’ best interests at the forefront.
