\n

\t\t\t\tIn 2025, we saw greater adoption of generative artificial intelligence tools across all areas of the legal industry. Will 2026 bring more of the same? Or will there be a backlash or reaction of some sort?<\/p>\n

What about the regulatory landscape for AI? Will 2026 bring federal guidelines, or will we have to wait for 2027 or beyond?<\/p>\n

In this episode of Legal Rebels Podcast<\/em>, Oliver Roberts talks to the ABA Journal\u2019s Victor Li and predicts what we might see this year.<\/p>\n
