Off-Channel Communications & Free Versions of Collaboration Tools
Thursday, October 17th at 11:00am – 12:00pm

From WhatsApp and WeChat to Signal and beyond, the recent adoption of collaboration tools unquestionably improves productivity, but at what cost? New collaboration features and “free” tools are often released and used without automated compliance controls. This panel will examine the challenge of detecting the use of these tools and discuss practical risk mitigation strategies.

The Annual Judges’ Panel
Thursday, October 17th at 12:45pm-1:45pm

This year, the Judges’ Panel will focus on a hypothetical case in which the parties utilized AI to help prepare pleadings, discovery requests, responses and briefs, summaries of key documents and testimony, and chronologies and timelines – to mixed results. The Judges will provide their perspective on key issues that AI is raising in litigation, such as the impact of AI efficiencies on proportionality arguments, the permissibility of AI review of documents for relevance, privilege waiver from the use of client information to train AI and the consequences of bias in AI.
