As we enter 2026, the winners will be those who operationalize compliance as a capability by linking AI governance, privacy discipline, and cybersecurity resilience to business enablement.
January 12, 2026Michael Bahar and Jessica Fuhrman and Chris Bloomfield and Rebekah O’BrienThe Verification-Value Paradox states that increases in efficiency from AI use “will be met by a correspondingly greater imperative to manually verify” the outputs. The result is that the net value of AI in many legal contexts may be negligible once verification is honestly accounted for. For low-stakes tasks, verification costs are light. For core legal work, verification costs are heavy. That’s the tension.

Early action preserves critical evidence, prevents further harm, and increases the chance of a successful resolution.

For rights holders, platforms, and brands, the deal illustrates an emerging blueprint for commercializing iconic IP in AI-native formats while attempting to manage legal, regulatory, and reputational risk.
January 01, 2026Reber “Mitch” Boult and Joshua RojasMobile discovery has reached an inflection point. Courts spent 2024 handing out sanctions for two opposite failures: failing to preserve mobile data and collecting far too much of it. Litigants now face a genuine discovery double bind, including being punished for being careless and being punished again for being overly aggressive. That push-pull (collect more vs. collect less) is shaping the 2025 e-discovery landscape more than any technical development or new tool.
January 01, 2026Michael D’AngeloThe Texas Responsible Artificial Intelligence Governance Act (TRAIGA) takes effect Jan. 1, 2026 andlimits the use of AI for social scoring and activities that legislators say violate constitutional rights.
