This free webinar on the evidentiary challenges of AI features one of the country’s most foremost experts in this field-the Hon. Paul Grimm. Judge Grimm is a nationally recognized authority on electronic discovery and electronically stored information (ESI), as well as evidentiary issues involving digital media, including AI, and his landmark opinions have worked to advance the law with regard to ESI issues, including inadvertent disclosure, waiver of privilege, proper methods for search and retrieval, and the duty of counsel and parties to cooperate during pretrial discovery to reduce the cost and burden, as well as the admissibility, of digital evidence.

He also has published extensively on the issues associated with digital evidence, AI as evidence and the potential impact of generative AI on the judicial system. He has taught courses, lectured and written extensively on topics relating to e-discovery, technology and law, civil procedure, discovery and evidence. In September 2009, he was appointed by Chief Justice John Roberts to serve as a member of the Advisory Committee for the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and he chaired the subcommittee on discovery until 2015. Judge Grimm served in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland from 1997-2006 as a magistrate and served as the Chief Magistrate from 2006-2012. In 2012, Judge Grimm was appointed as a District Judge, a position in which he served until his retirement in 2022.

He currently serves as the director of the Bolch Judicial Institute at Duke Law School, which seeks to improve the administration of justice and judicial independence through judicial education in the United States and internationally, as well as through its publications, seminars, programs and symposia.
