Challenge
So You Think You Can Prompt?
One room. A dozen teams. A live hunt for the sharpest prompting sleuth in the profession. We are on the lookout for the real prompt prodigies: the lawyers who know exactly how to talk to the machine and pull out something brilliant. Teams take the floor, working with leading AI tools through live challenges, while a panel of judges watch for the spark that separates a good prompt from a great one. No scripts. No slides. Just quick thinking, clever inputs, and the thrill of watching real skill surface in real time. Prompt by prompt, the standouts rise and the judges crown those who have truly got it. Think you have the touch? Come show us.

Building Your Legal Career in the Age of AI
The legal profession is changing. The question isn't whether your career will change with it. It's how you'll navigate that change. This workshop explores what AI means for legal careers today and tomorrow, from the skills organizations are looking for to the roles emerging across firms and legal departments, plus practical ways to stay adaptable as AI becomes part of everyday legal work. You'll leave with a clearer understanding of where the profession is headed and how to position yourself for what's next.

Live Debate
The Great AI Debate
Two teams. Four sharp legal minds. One epic moderator. One consequential question the profession is not ready to answer yet. The Masters AI Debate puts real practitioners on opposite sides of the AI questions most panels politely avoid. No script. No consensus. Real tensions around risk, opportunity, governance, and transformation surfaced live in the room. The audience does not watch. They weigh in. Assumptions get tested. Best argument wins.
