Description

AI is no longer just a buzzword, it’s transforming legal operations globally, and Brazil is no exception. With the country’s draft AI law signed by the Senate in late 2024 and awaiting lower house review and presidential approval, legal teams face uncertainty around future compliance requirements. This session moves beyond theory to explore practical realities, risks, and opportunities in Brazil’s evolving AI landscape.

Expect discussion on:

  • Brazil’s AI bill: what’s in the draft, what could change, and what legal teams should prepare for
  • Real-world use cases: successes and failures in applying AI to legal workflows
  • Risk and governance: cybersecurity, bias, and accountability challenges
  • Skills for the future: how lawyers can adapt to AI-driven processes
