Artificial Intelligence is rapidly reshaping how environmental professionals research regulations, draft reports, analyze data, conduct due diligence, and manage projects. But alongside opportunity comes real legal, ethical, and liability considerations.
IAEP is bringing together a multidisciplinary panel of experts, including ERIS’ COO/CTO Diana Saccone, to discuss:
● How environmental firms are actually using AI today
● Legal and liability considerations when using AI in professional practice
● Confidentiality, data security, and client risk
● AI in report drafting, regulatory research, and data review
● Where AI adds efficiency — and where professional judgment remains critical
● What firms should be thinking about now to avoid future exposure. This session is designed for consultants, attorneys, regulators, industry professionals, and firm leaders navigating how AI fits into environmental work.
