Overview (Program Summary)
A program hosted by:
ACC MinnesotaArtificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping how corporate legal departments deliver value, manage risk, and interact with business clients. But where do the opportunities to drive efficiencies end and the ethical gray areas begin?
This CLE explores practical, real-world applications of AI in corporate legal practice, from billing review to contract drafting, document search, and client communications. Designed for in-house counsel with a range of technical comfort levels, the session moves beyond theory to examine the “applied” side of AI—what tools are being used, what pitfalls to avoid, and how to stay compliant with ethical and professional responsibility rules.
Participants will walk away with:
- Concrete examples of AI use cases that improve efficiency without compromising ethics
- Guidance on navigating confidentiality, competence, and supervision duties in AI-augmented work to maintain compliance with ABA guidelines
- Discussion of gray-area scenarios (e.g., AI in client communications, internal chatbots, and data reuse) and related ABA guidelines
- Practical tips for evaluating vendors and internal deployments to remain ethically compliant
- An overview of recent ethics-related AI litigation and regulatory guidance, and how it may impact corporate legal AI strategy
This program is not a lecture but a conversation about how to use AI responsibly in the corporate counsel environment.
