The program will cover the “hot issues” in contracting with AI vendors. Privacy, Cybersecurity and Data Rights issues are receiving significant public attention as the move to leverage new forms of AI (e.g., LLMs) and the proliferation of vendors using AI increases. On whatever the side of the contracting process your organization sits, you will want to be able to understand the risks in the AI supply chain and consider the impact on your contracting process. The presentation will discuss generally how AI processes data and generates results so that attendees can better understand the corresponding contract risks.

Generative AI holds significant transformative potential for the legal profession and is already being adopted for use by some of the world’s major law firms and by many legal tech vendors.

ChatGPT hit the world by storm in late 2022 and is the best known, general, open source generative AI large language model (LLM). “Harvey”, Counsel AI’s proprietary generative AI platform built on GPT-4 and developed specifically for lawyers is the best example of a LLM relevant to the legal profession. There are no Harvey demos available on the internet, and PwC is the only one of the Big 4 licensed to use Harvey, so come along to this exclusive ACC HK session if you’re interested in seeing Harvey in action.


But generative AI technologies like Harvey and ChatGPT are not the only game in town that can modernise and transform the way you practice law in-house. Leading GC’s in Hong Kong have already implemented different legal tech solutions ranging from intake & triage systems to legal operations, contract lifecycle management, document management, matter management and knowledge management solutions to name a few. Hear first-hand from three forward-thinking GCs about their views on legal tech, and the efficiency and cost-saving benefits that such investment delivers both their in-house legal team and their internal business clients.

This is a not-to-be-missed event. Register now as places are limited.

AGENDA

1:00 - 1:50 p.m. CLE Session 1 - Responsible AI and Why It Matters
Artificial intelligence (AI) technology is moving faster than the law, but regulation is just around the corner and organizations should prepare by building a Responsible AI Framework. This panel will offer practical tips for AI governance, including adapting existing frameworks, tracking forthcoming US and international regulation, bringing various business teams and functions to the table, building a model inventory, and selecting the principles to be the foundation for internal policies and procedures. Attendees will walk away with an understanding of how other organizations have been tackling AI governance and key things to look out for in the AI legal landscape.
Speaker: Camila Tobón | Partner | Shook Hardy and Bacon 

1:50 - 2:00 p.m. Break

2:00 - 2:50 p.m. CLE Session 2 - Be Aware: Your AI Has Implicit Bias, Too 
Companies and law firms are looking for ways to commit to meaningful change in the areas of equity, diversity, and inclusivity. For those efforts to be successful, it is critical to better understand the ways in which implicit bias manifests itself in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). As more and more companies integrate AI in their products, services, and processes, the need for fairness and non-discrimination in AI-based decision-making becomes increasingly important. This panel will offer practical strategies on how companies can detect and mitigate ethical risks rooted in implicit bias as they leverage AI to improve productivity and performance. 
Speakers:  Caroline Gieser | Associate | Shook Hardy & Bacon and Yara Rashad | Associate | Shook Hardy & Bacon
