Legal's Role in AI Governance: How Much is Enough?

About the Webinar

AI isn’t coming. It’s already here.

Even the most traditional companies are now experimenting with AI. But as adoption accelerates, a critical question emerges. Does AI governance really matter- and if so, how much?

For in-house counsel, the answer isn't always clear-cut. Governance can protect against risk and ensure compliance, but too much structure can stifle growth. Our panel of legal leaders will examine how to find the right balance between enabling the business and establishing responsible frameworks for AI. We'll talk through real-world use cases to help teams shape a governance strategy that fits their organizations' goals and risk appetite.
