Program Description:

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly reshaping arbitration, offering new tools while raising complex questions. This webinar brings together arbitrators and advocates to examine AI from both perspectives—neutral and advocate—highlighting practical benefits, risks, and ethical concerns.

Arbitrators will discuss how AI may support case management, research, and drafting of orders and awards, while addressing concerns about fairness, transparency, and overreliance. Advocates will explore how AI can improve efficiency in case preparation, document review, and strategy, while also navigating issues of accuracy, confidentiality, and client expectations.

Panelists will weigh the advantages and disadvantages of emerging technologies, consider ethical implications, and share frameworks for responsibly evaluating AI tools.

Key Discussion Points:
• Practical uses of AI for arbitrators and advocates
• Efficiency vs. risks of bias or error
• Ethical concerns, including transparency and confidentiality
• Criteria for evaluating and adopting AI tools
• The future of AI in arbitration

This program offers a balanced, practical look at AI in arbitration and guidance for integrating technology responsibly into practice.
