A complimentary seminar presented by Thompson Hine LLP
The gap between AI innovation and legal regulation is no longer a future problem — it is today's compliance and litigation challenge. Businesses are deploying AI tools at breakneck speed, while legislatures, courts and regulators scramble to keep pace. The legal risks are multiplying faster than most organizations can track them—from automated hiring platforms that may unintentionally discriminate, to AI meeting bots that silently record privileged conversations, to employees pasting sensitive deal terms into consumer chatbots. We invite you to join us in person for this timely discussion.
Why This Roundtable
This intimate roundtable, facilitated by Thompson Hine lawyers Heather Adams, Julie Honor and Kimberly Pack, brings together practitioners for a candid, working discussion over lunch. Rather than a lecture, expect a facilitated conversation designed to leave you with concrete, actionable takeaways.
What We'll Cover
- Colliding Regulatory Landscapes: U.S. and Global
- AI in Hiring: The Courts Weigh in
- Data Privacy, Confidentiality and the Privilege Problem
- Building Governance That Actually Works
Who Should Attend
This session is designed for in-house counsel, privacy officers, AI professionals and HR leaders grappling with the real-world deployment of AI. Whether you're advising a company that just adopted its first AI hiring tool or managing a mature enterprise AI program, this discussion will be immediately relevant.
What to Expect
This is not a passive CLE. Expect to engage. Every participant will have the chance to raise specific issues, pressure-test approaches and leave with practical action items. The Chatham House Rule will apply. We'll keep the conversation moving across topics, so you walk away with a comprehensive view of the landscape and a clearer approach for navigating these tools
CLE
CLE credit is pending.
