Katherine Forrest Discusses New Legal Issues and Opportunities Arising From AI With Law360

Digital Technology Group Chair Katherine Forrest spoke with Law360 about the impact of AI on the legal industry and on U.S. democracy. In a Q&A published on March 12, Katherine discusses her work training clients and the judiciary on a wide range of AI-related topics.
