“In-house legal teams are on the front lines of managing the risks and opportunities presented by Artificial Intelligence,” said Joel Bush,
Partner at Kilpatrick. “This AI Toolkit is designed to help in-house lawyers ask the right questions, spot issues early on, guide cross-functional teams, and implement strategies around governance, regulatory compliance, IP ownership, confidentiality, and more. Assembling the Toolkit required extensive collaboration across many practice specialties, including privacy, cybersecurity, governance, ethics, intellectual property, and contracting, and I am immensely grateful for my colleagues at Kilpatrick—and the in-house ACC members—who shared their expertise and insights to create this timely resource. Kilpatrick has a long history on the cutting edge of law and technology and we’re proud to continue that tradition by partnering with ACC to create this strategic tool for in-house lawyers to advise their businesses with clarity and confidence.”
