American Bar Association
The American Bar Association recently released “Artificial Intelligence: Legal Issues, Policy, and Practical Strategies,” created through a collaboration between the presidential ABA Task Force on Law and Artificial Intelligence and the ABA Science & Technology Law Section.
The book arose from the work of the AI Task Force, an initiative launched by ABA President Mary Smith to address critical legal and law practice issues arising from rapid adoption of generative AI and other AI technologies.
The book features contributions from more than 40 preeminent authorities offering practical strategies, legal analysis and reflections on the influence that AI will have on both the legal profession and the law.
According to Lucy Thomson, chair of the AI Task Force and principal of Livingston PLLC: “We created this book as a resource on a wide range of critical issues concerning AI and the law. AI will require lawyers and judges to understand how AI works, how it is developed and used, what advantages it can bring, the risks it can create and the legal and ethical issues that will arise.”
Thomson served as co-editor of the book with Cynthia Cwik, vice chair of the AI Task Force and a former litigation partner with Jones Day and Latham & Watkins LLP, and Christopher Suarez, a SciTech officer and partner with Steptoe LLP who practices in its Intellectual Property and AI, Data and Digital groups.
AI is transforming the world and the practice of law at a rapid pace. AI has the potential to improve many aspects of legal practice, including increasing the speed at which tasks can be done and boosting productivity.
Yet AI also presents significant challenges, including the need to protect confidential client information, establish governance frameworks to ensure accuracy and mitigate privacy, security and intellectual property risks.
Over the past year, the ABA AI Task Force has presented programs on both the promise and peril of using AI technologies in the law. SciTech, in its 50th year, is a leading voice within the ABA on emerging technologies, including AI.
