This CLE course will discuss the increasing importance in civil cases of ascertaining, proving, and challenging the admissibility of evidence derived from artificial intelligence (AI) applications. The program will discuss what AI is and how it works, what kinds of AI application are being used, issues implicated by AI, and how the rules of evidence affect and apply to admissibility, including the need for expert witnesses, and hurdles that must be overcome before such applications or the resulting data can or should be admitted in a case.

Description

AI applications are growing increasingly ubiquitous. Thus, counsel have no choice but to understand how to admit AI evidence--or object to its admission--in the courtroom. Counsel must comprehend AI fundamentals, including what AI is and how it works, and what issues AI raises. Counsel ignore AI evidence at their own and their clients' peril.

As insurance companies, medical providers, and other companies more frequently rely on data from AI-based processes to make decisions, plaintiffs' counsel must understand how to challenge the validity, reliability, and therefore, admissibility of this data.

Both plaintiff and defense counsel must fully appreciate which rules of evidence apply to AI evidence, and what proofs are necessary. With renewed emphasis on the court's gatekeeping function, choosing the right expert(s) can make or break the case.

Listen as this experienced panel addresses what AI is, how it works, how AI is used by lawyers, what judges need to know, admissibility issues when introducing AI evidence, and a discussion of applicable rules of evidence.
