Webinar: The Invisible Checklist – What Makes IP Teams Say Yes to AI
Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping patent practice, but before IP teams embrace any AI solution, they run through a complex evaluation process that goes far beyond impressive demos and bold efficiency claims. In this session, patent practitioners and AI experts will unpack the real questions law firms and in-house teams ask before they are willing to trust, deploy, and rely on AI in their IP operations.
Join us on Tuesday, June 23, at 12 PM ET, for a candid webinar discussion exploring “The Invisible Checklist” – the often-unspoken criteria IP teams use when deciding whether to adopt AI tools in patent and legal workflows.
From trust, liability, confidentiality, and auditability to billing pressure, competitive realities, and the future training of junior attorneys, this webinar will explore the practical, operational, and strategic considerations driving AI adoption decisions across the IP industry. Attendees will hear how firms and corporate legal departments evaluate whether AI-generated work product is filing-ready, how they think about accountability and oversight, and what security and confidentiality safeguards are now considered essential.
The panel will also examine the business realities surrounding AI adoption, including whether AI can improve profitability, increase team capacity without adding headcount, reduce outside counsel costs, and create competitive pressure on organizations that hesitate to adapt. Finally, the discussion will address one of the profession’s most important long-term questions: if AI handles more of the drafting work, how will the next generation of patent practitioners develop the skills they need?
