Keeping A.I. Honest: Reducing A.I. Hallucinations in Legal Research
Presented by: Legal Humorist Sean Carter

Generative A.I. is fast, persuasive, and increasingly embedded in legal work. It can also produce answers that are polished, professional, and completely false. For lawyers trained to rely on authoritative language, this creates a unique risk: trusting output that sounds right but isn't. This program explains how and why A.I. "hallucinates," and why lawyers are especially vulnerable to being misled by confident, well-structured nonsense.

In this practical, engaging one-hour program, participants learn how to reduce hallucination risk through smarter prompting, simple verification techniques, and better judgment about when and how A.I. should be used. The focus is on real legal workflows, not technical jargon or abstract rules. Attendees leave with tools to make A.I. a powerful assistant rather than a confidently wrong co-counsel.
