Cross-examining AI : CJC interim report and consultation and recent cases on AI and privilege

This is the first episode of "Cross-examining AI", HSF Kramer's podcast series on disputes & AI where we unpack the key developments in AI that are shaping litigation today. In this episode we discuss the Civil Justice Council’s interim report and consultation on the use of AI in preparing court documents and give an overview of the first cases to consider the impact of AI on privilege. This episode is hosted by Martin Hevey, a senior associate in our disputes team, who is joined by Emma Deas, a financial services litigation partner, and Charlotte Benton, a senior associate in our disputes team.
