How GCs Are Thinking About Artificial Intelligence: A Roundtable Discussion

On Demand Webinar

General Counsel must always move quickly, understand business needs, and deliver on-point legal advice. But that’s getting more complex day-by-day, with increasing matter volumes, growing global regulatory complexity, economic shocks, and relentless technological transformation.

On top of that, advances in Generative Artificial Intelligence this year add additional levels of complexity – both new possibilities for the delivery of legal services and dangers and opportunities for many underlying businesses.

Thomson Reuters presents a conversation with two GCs in the thick of that transformation – Courtney Dutter, General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer of iCIMS, and Natalie Lamarque, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of Principal Financial Group – moderated by William Josten, Senior Manager of the Thomson Reuters Institute. Join us for a look at what GCs should be thinking through, including:

Understanding what your peers and vendors are doing – and what you can do
Aligning to your business’s risk profile – is “No to AI” even an option?
Tracking data and dollars - what can you get and what would it cost
Thinking about the future of the profession and training lawyers with new skill-sets
And more.

The webinar will broadcast on NOV 1^st, 2023 at 11:00 AM CT | 16:00 PM GMT . Sign up now and view live or on-demand any time afterward.
