AI, professional negligence and the black box problem

Burges Salmon LLP,
New Street Square,
London,
UK

4th June 2026
4:30pm - 6pm BST

As AI becomes embedded in legal, financial and operational decision‑making, a new professional risk landscape is taking shape. This session examines what happens when reliance on AI goes wrong—or when the decision not to use it becomes the problem.

This session will explore:

  • Professional negligence risks arising from the use and non‑use of AI
  • Attributing responsibility and proving causation in AI‑influenced decisions
  • Defending judgment calls made with (or against) AI outputs
  • The claimant perspective: options when technology‑driven advice causes loss

Drawing on UK Jurisdiction Taskforce insights and real‑world disputes, this is a timely, practical discussion for anyone advising clients in an AI‑enabled world.

Join us afterwards for complimentary drinks, canapes and networking with speakers and attendees.
