The Role of AI Detection Software
Pioneer Institute
185 Devonshire Street Boston, MA 02110Join Frank J. Bailey, President of the Pioneer New England Legal Foundation, for a special demonstration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) detection software. The event will be conducted via Zoom with a limited number of in-person seats available.
As AI becomes increasingly integrated into legal practice, legal professionals must understand both its capabilities and inherent risks. While AI offers powerful tools to support legal analysis, it simultaneously raises serious concerns regarding accuracy, confidentiality, and ethical application.
To address these critical issues, PNELF's summer interns undertook a comprehensive project modeling a hypothetical legal case using various legal AI platforms. Their objective was to assess whether these technologies produce outputs meeting the rigorous standards required for professional legal practice. Concurrently, they examined the broader policy implications of AI adoption through the lens of academic integrity in higher education—a domain where these challenges have already manifested.
Through this dual examination of both practical applications and policy considerations, this program provides a timely and essential analysis of how legal professionals can engage critically and responsibly with AI tools. The ultimate objective is to ensure that artificial intelligence enhances rather than undermines the fundamental integrity of our justice system.
