SUMMARY:Inns of Court - Ethics and Professional Responsibility in the Age of Generative AI
DESCRIPTION:Topic:                Ethics and Professional Responsibility in the Age of Generative AI \n Date:                  Wednesday\, September 24\, 2025 – 5:00pm to 7:30pm \n Location:         Maple Room – Sticky Wicket Pub (food provided) \nTopic:                 Generative AI promises new opportunities for efficiency and innovation in legal practice\, but it also raises profound ethical and professional responsibility challenges.
