In a moment of countless ideas and promises of generative AI, it can be difficult to sort out real impact from commercial fluff. Cutting through the morass, it’s clear that generative AI will have substantial effects across the EDRM, including the data that is created and ultimately how we understand and review it. Join Lighthouse and industry experts in a series of engaging conversations about how generative AI is impacting information governance, eDiscovery, and the future of the industry. Using current use cases, they will parse out strategies for utilizing and responding to this new technology, ensuring you’re getting the most from its potential.

Law schools, law firms and other CLE programs teach you how to “Think Like A Lawyer,” but succeeding in a law firm environment also requires you to “Think Like A Client” so that your clients will like and respect you, and ideally, want to hire you again and again.  Having spent more than twenty-five years as a law firm litigator, an in-house lawyer and now as a client, Zach McGee offers law firm lawyers at every level sage advice on what you should be doing -- and what you should not be doing -- to put your best foot forward when working with your clients.

Panelists will discuss the importance of collaborative dialogue in successfully implementing AI and identify the key stakeholders necessary to achieve organization-wide success with AI. This session will highlight how different perspectives can contribute to more effective and ethical AI solutions, explore how stakeholder buy-in impacts adoption, and provide a dynamic platform for attendees to identify and discuss the crucial stakeholders necessary for the success of AI initiatives in their organizations.

This discussion will engage participants in developing concrete strategies for drafting, implementing and enforcing AI use policies within their organizations.

The session will also tackle the challenge of 'shadow IT' -- the use of unauthorized or unmanaged tech by employees -- and offer practical solutions to manage these risks.

We’ll begin the 2024 AI Workshop exploring current, practical applications of AI in the legal sector, emphasizing real-world effectiveness over theoretical potential. Panelists will provide tips and insights on distinguishing between AI tools that offer genuine value and those that are merely overhyped solutions in search of a problem.
