Artificial intelligence is here to stay — and its impact on the legal industry can’t be underestimated. Are you up to speed on AI’s rapid growth, risks, and potential? Practising Law Institute (PLI) keeps the legal community informed of developments affecting both the law and the business of law. Named a “brand working to build a better future” by Fast Company last year, PLI identifies, researches, and stays on top of emerging trends, working with a deep bench of experienced program attorneys and faculty from law firms, corporations, government, the judiciary, and academia to develop training and other content that meets the moment. “Clearly, AI is shaking up the way business is done across industries, and the legal sector is no exception. When lawyers want to learn how to use AI tools to improve efficiency in their practices, how AI is changing the business of law firms, or the impact of the latest tech and legal developments on clients, they need timely resources on this rapidly evolving topic. PLI is ready to meet their needs,” says Kara O’Brien, Chief Content Officer at PLI. A Can’t-Miss Event Now in its seventh year, PLI’s two-day Artificial Intelligence Law program has become a must-attend event for anyone interested in the emerging law and legal implications of the development and use of artificial intelligence. The first day will focus on a thorough examination of the latest legal developments in AI, while the second day will shift the focus to issues arising in day-to-day legal practice. Throughout the program, speakers will emphasize the knowledge needed to spot risks and opportunities and to effectively counsel clients, and provide practical guidance on issues ranging from IP to antitrust and consumer protection to third-party vendor contracting. The live program will take place January 23–24, 2025. In 2024, the program sold out PLI’s New York Conference Center. You can register now to save your spot in person or for the live webcast. Learn at Your Convenience PLI also makes its programs available to stream on-demand from a desktop, laptop, or on the go with the mobile app. Two recent programs covering artificial intelligence are now available on-demand: Artificial Intelligence in Law Practice 2024 is designed to provide an in-depth, foundational understanding of AI — and the benefits and risks of using it for legal tasks. The program equips lawyers with the knowledge they need to evaluate AI tools, identify ways to use them in practice, and capture opportunities to innovate, while fulfilling their ethical and legal obligations to clients. Another popular program, Artificial Intelligence and Privacy 2024, was developed for privacy and data governance practitioners within any organization and provides insights and practical information about the ongoing conversation surrounding the global regulatory landscape on data. The program considers potential risks and implications — and utilizing the right approach — when implementing AI frameworks within the context of global privacy law. PLI also offers bite-sized programs to stream on-demand, including a One-Hour Briefing on generative AI in law practice, and another on GAI’s impact on e-discovery. Join the Conversation While most PLI programs offer CLE, PLI also has a wealth of freely available content on timely topics like AI. Working with thought leaders, PLI produces podcasts such as Fast-Tracked: Emergent Issues in the Legal Profession, hosted by Jennifer Leonard of Creative Lawyers, which explores trends shaping the practice and business of law. The podcast features industry leaders, and dives into GAI and lawyer formation, GAI and access to justice, and other related topics. Another podcast, PLI Ever Current: AI & Data Law, features conversations between data law expert Bill Tanenbaum, of Moses & Singer, and leaders from law and technology.
