How AI Is Changing Law and the Ethical Implications for Lawyers
In the latest installment of this popular series, Zach McGee discusses Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) and how this technology – particularly Generative AI that can generate content in the form of text, images, video, audio, etc. in response to prompts from a user – is poised to change how knowledge workers, including lawyers, do our jobs.
But before you consider using ChatGPT or other Generative AI tools to assist in your law practice, you need to make sure you understand exactly how these tools work, what they can do and what they can’t, how reliable they are or aren’t, and most importantly, what legal ethics issues can arise.
This program gives you the knowledge you need to perform that exercise for yourself as Generative AI tools continue to evolve.
Rules covered include: ABA Model Rules 1.1, 1.6, 1.15, 3.1, 3.3, 5.3, 5.5 & 8.4; Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure
