Series Description: This four-part series demystifies the technical foundations and legal implications of modern artificial intelligence (AI). Designed for attorneys and legal professionals with some knowledge of AI, the series provides a structured exploration of how neural networks and transformers function, how “agentic” AI systems are evolving, and what ethical, procedural, and constitutional considerations accompany their use in legal settings. You will leave with a grounded understanding of how AI systems actually work — and how to evaluate, supervise, and responsibly integrate them into legal practice.
Class Description: The third class in this series explores the ethical and practical dimensions of integrating AI into legal practice. Structured in two parts, this class provides both the guardrails and strategies attorneys need to collaborate with AI responsibly.
In the first hour, our expert panel addresses emerging ethical concerns, focusing on confidentiality, the use of ethics screens, and best practices to protect client information when employing AI-powered tools. The second hour turns to the practical side of human-AI collaboration, including explainability and interpretability collaboration vs. task decomposition, and comparing the strengths of humans vs. AI tools.
By the end of the session, you will understand how to evaluate AI tools through both an ethical and strategic lens. You’ll also be equipped to use AI responsibly, preserve client trust, and recognize when technology can enhance — rather than replace — your professional expertise. You will also come away with a much better understanding of how you can strategically incorporate AI into your practice while mitigating risks you may not otherwise be equipped to identify.
Those interested in this class may also want to attend the other classes in this series: Reasoning with Transformers; Agentic Workflows, Tool Calling, and Planning with Transformers; and AI and Adjudication.
