SUMMARY:Session one: AI and accountability in international arbitration
DESCRIPTION:This session examines the accountability questions raised by 
 the growing use of AI tools in arbitral proceedings\, by counsel\, arbit
 rators and institutions alike. Under the EU AI Act\, AI systems used to 
 assist an arbitral tribunal in interpreting the facts and the law are cl
 assified as high-risk (Annex III)\; counsel’s and institutions’ own use 
 of AI generally is not. The timeline for those high-risk obligations is 
 a live issue: originally due to apply from 2 August 2026\, they have bee
 n deferred to 2 December 2027 under the ‘Digital Omnibus’ package adopte
 d in mid-2026\, even as the Act's AI-transparency duties took effect on 
 2 August 2026. The panel will consider who bears responsibility when an 
 AI-generated work product contains errors\, what disclosure obligations 
 counsel and arbitrators should have when relying on AI\, whether arbitra
 tors may delegate any part of their reasoning process to AI tools and ho
 w practitioners should navigate the new regulatory framework in cross-bo
 rder proceedings.
