Abstract

The American Bar Association promulgates model ethics rules that require attorneys to adhere to certain professional standards in the practice of law. The ABA recently published an advisory ethics opinion addressing the ethical implications of lawyers’ use of artificial intelligence, particularly generative AI. While framed around the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct, the opinion offers principles that are instructive well beyond the legal profession, especially for disability services and compliance.
