The National Center for State Courts will present a webinar on “AI Evidence in Jury Trials: Authenticity, Admissibility, and Roles of the Court and Juries” Wednesday, August 20, from 1 to 2 p.m. via Zoom.
As artificial intelligence (AI) technologies become more prevalent, state courts are likely to encounter AI-generated evidence, such as deepfakes, reconstructed videos, and synthetic documents.
In this webinar, the TRI/NCSC AI Policy Consortium will explore the evidentiary challenges posed by both acknowledged and unacknowledged AI-generated evidence in jury trials. Panelists will examine existing legal frameworks for authentication and admissibility and provide practical guidance for judges and attorneys. Special attention will be paid to the unique responsibilities of courts and juries in evaluating the authenticity and reliability of AI-generated evidence, as well as the potential need for updated jury instructions and judicial guidance.
Speaking at the webinar will be:
• Maura R. Grossman, research professor and eDiscovery lawyer/consultant/expert/special master
• Jawwaad Johnson, director of the Center of Jury Studies and principal court management consultant, NCSC
• Judge Erica Yew, Santa Clara County (Calif.) Superior Court
• Moderator Megan Carpenter, dean and professor of law, University of New Hampshire Franklin Pierce School of Law
