Year-in-Review Discussion with Your Practical Law Editors

Watch On Demand

Hosted by Thomson Reuters

AI captured the collective imagination in 2023 and legal professionals across all practice areas and industries had to think about how it would impact their clients and transform the legal landscape.

We invite you to join four Practical Law Editors from our busiest practice areas as they review 2023 and share their thoughts on what is on the horizon for 2024. Topics on the agenda include:

Navigating the developing regulatory and political environment around AI
AI in the workplace
AI in commercial transactions and the digital transformation of products and services
The intersection between AI and Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG)

Thomson Reuters has a long-standing involvement in generative AI through TR Labs and has been a thought leader in establishing governance principles and a compelling vision for the future of the legal profession, drawing on our unique, trusted, and authoritative content.

Specialist legal editors across the Practical Law team have continued to track the developing policy and regulatory frameworks in the UK and EU, using their expertise and practical insights to help you navigate more confidently.

In 2023, we continued to grow our range of materials to help customers understand the ethical and practical concerns around the adoption of AI in products, services, and processes. Our resources also provide practical insight into the issues in commissioning AI projects, the use of AI in the workplace, and the digital transformation of products and services.
