Trust but Verify: eDiscovery Readiness for Enterprise AI Tools

As AI tools rapidly become embedded across organizations, legal and discovery teams face a new challenge: understanding what data exists, where it lives, and how to prepare for it before collection even begins.

This discussion will explore how legal teams should think about AI-generated content and enterprise readiness through a practical Past / Present / Future lens. Speakers will examine lessons learned from previous technology shifts — from email to chat to technology-assisted review (TAR) — and how those transitions shaped discovery practices and legal standards.

The session will then focus on today’s evolving landscape: AI-generated outputs, prompts and responses, discoverability considerations, retention strategies, and governance questions organizations are actively navigating. The conversation concludes with actionable workflows focused on pre-collection planning, preservation readiness, and early matter scoping — helping teams move beyond theory and toward practical, left-of-the-EDRM approaches.

Attendees will leave with a stronger framework for evaluating enterprise AI readiness and practical guidance they can apply immediately.
