The session will begin with a 10–15-minute opening presentation and QR-code poll, setting the context by exploring what will continue to make lawyers valuable as AI increasingly performs legal research, drafting and workflow automation. This will be followed by a 15-minute roundtable discussion, after which participants will engage in three focused table discussions for approximately 15 minutes in total, with around five minutes allocated to each theme. The discussions will consider the future of the AI-native associate, the evolution of the AI-enabled law firm, and the importance of trust, ethics and professional responsibility in the use of AI. The session will conclude with a 15–20-minute moderated panel discussion, followed by closing QR-code questions and live audience responses, with the exact timing for the closing segment to be confirmed.
