Description

 Do you want to understand where AI is really heading and how to stay ahead of it? Not the hype, not the headlines. We're talking real world legal business and operational shifts already reshaping companies right now.

In this episode of the TechVibe Emerging Tech Law Series with Babst Calland, we are joined by Justine Kasznica and Chris Farmakis of Babst Calland, two experts living at the intersection of emerging technology law and business strategy.

Today's conversation goes deep. AI has officially crossed the line from interesting experiment to core business infrastructure. But with that shift comes risk regulation, workforce disruption, and major winners and losers. Justine and Chris break down what they're seeing on the front lines from the boardrooms and C-suites to even law firms racing to reinvent themselves.

So whether you're a tech founder, executive investor, or operator trying to make sense of AI in 2026 and beyond, you have to keep on listening. Three key takeaways are AI is no longer optional, but reckless adoption is very dangerous. The real AI divide is not technology. It is execution. In entire industries, including the law are facing structural change.

We are going to explore all of that and more, so let's just jump into it right now.
