Does It Actually Work? Evaluating AI Tools for Access to Justice
Wednesday October 21, 2026 9:00am - 10:30am EDT
Cincinnati Convention Center
Generative AI has the potential to increase access to justice for self-represented litigants, but only if we engage in responsible use.
To do this, we must thoroughly test our AI tools for accuracy, tone, and outcomes and then iterate models based on results.
This 90-minute session will mix lectures, case studies, and small group exercises to help participants better understand the unique needs of evaluating and testing AI tools, and equip them with knowledge and tools to plan and execute necessary evaluations for all stages of their project.
Topics will include:
- why evaluation is key;
- how to determine acceptable error rates based on use, audience, risk of harm, and other factors;
- how much testing is enough testing; and
- various testing methods and strategies that attendees can use.
