The Accountability Gap in AI-Assisted Legal Work

Jaimini Shah

As AI becomes more embedded in legal work, questions around accountability are becoming harder to ignore. AI can help teams work faster, but who is responsible for reviewing its outputs, managing risks and ensuring decisions remain sound? In this session, we'll explore where accountability sits when legal teams use AI, how to balance efficiency with human judgement, and what practical oversight looks like as AI becomes part of everyday legal workflows.
