Generative Legal 2026 is the inaugural edition of an invite-only conference built on a simple premise: the leaders adopting AI in law should be learning from each other. Discussions run under the Chatham House Rule. Attendance is complimentary. If you're part of this community and would like to join us at Stanford on April 17, we'd love to hear from you.

What's actually possible with legal AI today, and what's still on the horizon? This presentation provides a grounded overview of the current state of generative AI technology for legal applications. We'll explore how foundation models are evolving, what breakthroughs matter most for legal work, and where the technology still falls short. Attendees will leave with a clear-eyed understanding of AI's capabilities and limitations—essential context for every conversation that follows.
A conversation with Mark Pike, Associate General Counsel at Anthropic, who has been building legal tools hands-on as a non-technical lawyer at the frontier of AI development. This session explores what's possible when lawyers take an active role in building their own technology, the evolving legal tech model, and where frontier models are taking the profession next.
How are leading law departments actually using generative AI today? This panel brings together trailblazing legal ops and innovation leaders to share concrete case studies of generative AI at work. Attendees will come away with a grounded understanding of generative AI's real ROI in legal settings, armed with lessons learned and best practices to apply in their own teams.
A Q&A with Jai Ramaswamy, Chief Legal & Policy Officer at Andreessen Horowitz. Jai Ramaswamy sits at the center of one of the world's most active technology investment platforms. His dual vantage of seeing what's being built and governing how it's deployed makes him uniquely positioned to explore how AI is changing leadership expectations for legal teams. The conversation will cover evaluating AI tools, developing junior talent in an era of automation, and the business-model shifts emerging across in-house departments and law firms alike. Moderated by Hugh Carlson.
What do in-house leaders actually want from AI-enabled law firms? Hear directly from in-house leaders about their expectations for outside counsel. Are they demanding AI-driven efficiencies? Do they trust AI-assisted work product? How are they evaluating law firms' AI capabilities in pitches and panels? This session surfaces the client voice and helps law firms understand where the market is heading.
This forward-looking panel examines how generative AI is reshaping the talent pipeline and operating models in law. Topics include the recruitment and training of young lawyers—if AI handles more entry-level work, how will junior attorneys gain the foundational experience they need? We'll also discuss how law firms and in-house departments are adjusting their structures: early signs suggest corporate legal teams are pulling more work in-house, relying less on outside counsel, and expecting alternative fee arrangements as AI boosts efficiency.
