 Many law students, professors, and practitioners have been bombarded with headlines showcasing the risks of using Generative AI (GenAI) tools – from case hallucinations, to algorithmic bias in sentencing, to inaccurate citations. While these concerns are often well-founded, this phenomenon has often led to many members of the legal profession simply writing off GenAI tools as unsuited for the professional environment. This webinar looks to explore the potential uses of GenAI beyond the traditional legal research and writing contexts – specifically in practical uses that can allow for increased accuracy, collaboration, streamlining, and time efficiency.
