AI is reshaping the legal sector, creating new opportunities to deliver services more efficiently, consistently and effectively. As adoption grows, legal professionals need to consider how these tools are used and ensure risks are properly managed.
CILEx Regulation’s new AI Guidance:
- Helps regulated individuals and entities harness the benefits of artificial intelligence, while meeting their professional and ethical obligations.
- Highlights that responsibility cannot be delegated, any AI-generated output must be reviewed, verified and approved by an appropriately competent individual.
- Underlines the need for effective governance, robust oversight and professional judgment to safeguard consumers, maintain public trust and uphold the standards expected of the profession.
Covering areas including competence, accuracy, confidentiality, transparency and human oversight, the guidance explains how the CILEX Code of Conduct applies to the use of AI, and provides practical guidance for organisations adopting AI-powered tools.
