It's time to reimagine legal research from the ground up – natively for AI, not retrofitted for it. . This session traces the full arc of the field: exploring how legal knowledge has been gathered, distributed and validated across history and landing in a near future where AI navigates the law with unprecedented consistency, accuracy and depth. 

We begin with the history of legal data and access, from Mesopotamian stone tablets to the Gutenberg Press to keyword search, and why each leap failed to solve the true bottleneck: accurately connecting and making sense of fragmented sources. 

Next, we face the present reality: while AI promises a breakthrough in legal research, current tools still fail in dozens of distinct ways. We’ll explore  how a structured, ontology-based approach solves this by enabling AI to navigate complex law with accuracy. The payoff? Massive efficiency gains, the ability to surface hidden legal insights, and a dramatic expansion of legal research at scale. We close on what multi-jurisdictional, agentic research means for cross-border work, and the role legal professionals will play in a world where AI is the primary vehicle in navigating law.

Learn more

What you'll learn

  • A new model for legal research once the law becomes fully navigable, and why bigger or better AI models alone won’t get us there
  • How to distinguish between AI that truly understands the law from AI that merely pattern-matches text, and why this difference means everything for legal research
  • How value shifts once rigorous research becomes abundant, and why human judgement will matter more, not less

Who should join

This session speaks directly to those whose work depends on getting the law right: practicing attorneys, knowledge management and innovation leaders, legal operations and technology teams, and law firm or in-house leaders weighing what AI will actually change about legal research. No technical background required, only curiosity about where the profession is heading and the role you’ll play in it. Come ready to explore the future of legal research we’re mapping together.

AI is making legal work faster. The harder question for firm leaders is how to capture that speed without undermining the hands-on work junior associates learn from.

This session will cover how forward-thinking firms are putting AI to work as a teammate, across triage, synthesis, standardization, and handoff, as a support layer that carries the routine and makes room to grow. We'll walk through real law firm scenarios, get precise about where human judgment has to lead, and share the simple SOPs that teams actually adopt. At the end, we'll have time for a live Q&A.

Learn more

What you'll learn

  • Where AI earns its place across triage, synthesis, standardization, and handoff, and where human judgment still leads.
  • How firms speed up routine work while keeping the reps junior associates need to grow into great lawyers.
  • Simple SOPs you can take back to your team, plus a live Q&A on the bottlenecks you're facing now.

Who should join

Whether you lead a firm, run innovation or KM, or supervise junior associates day to day, this session is for anyone figuring out how to adopt AI without losing the hands-on work that develops talent. If you're past the theory and want use cases you can actually put to work, this one's for you.
