1. AI Ethics and Professional Responsibility
Participants will examine the intersection of AI technologies and attorneys' ethical obligations, highlighting the necessity for human oversight and sound professional judgment while utilizing AI tools.

2. AI Accuracy and Reliability
This topic will cover the inherent limitations of AI-generated information, noting the risks posed by possible inaccuracies or fabrications. The panel will stress the importance of verifying AI-assisted research and maintaining the integrity of information used in legal contexts.
