Prompting for Legal AI
Prompting is the art of crafting questions or directions to uncover the best results from generative AI tools such as chatbots and large language models. As legal professionals adopt generative AI in their work, whether drafting a legal memo, answering a complex legal question or summarizing caselaw, prompting has become an essential skill.
In this must see webinar, our panelists will outline how lawyers and law students are learning prompting and applying AI in their practices and at law schools.
