PLTG's Quarterly "A.I. at Law" Open Forum
AI Training in the Messy Middle
Virtual Lunch Session on "A.I. at Law"
Wednesday June 17, 2026 - 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm Eastern
Also, Open to non-PLTG members
What’s changing, what’s challenging, and what we’re learning across law firms
Join PLTG for the next session in our quarterly AI Roundtable series, a practical, trainer-centered conversation about what generative AI training looks like inside law firms right now.
Since our last roundtable in March, the AI landscape has continued to shift quickly. Tools are changing, expectations are rising, policies are evolving, and trainers are often the ones helping users make sense of it all.
This session will focus less on product features and more on the lived experience of legal technology trainers: what is working, what is not landing as expected, and what we are learning along the way.
We’ll explore how AI training differs across firm environments, from solo trainers and small teams to larger training departments, and how each setup brings its own challenges, advantages, and lessons.
Discussion topics will include:
- What has changed in your firm’s AI training reality since our last roundtable
- How firm size affects AI training, support, rollout, and adoption
- What makes AI training harder in smaller versus larger training environments
- Training efforts, demos, resources, or communications that did not land as expected
- What trainers have adjusted, salvaged, or rethought
- How we can move from broad AI awareness to practical, role-specific support
This will be an interactive roundtable, not a formal presentation or product demo. Participants will be invited to share examples, compare experiences, respond to quick polls, and contribute ideas in the chat or aloud.
Vendor members are welcome and valued as part of the PLTG community. For this session, we will intentionally begin with firm trainer experiences first, then invite vendor perspectives to help identify broader patterns and observations across firms.
Whether your firm is just beginning to explore AI training, actively rolling out tools, reinforcing adoption, or still defining the trainer’s role, this session is designed to help you leave with practical ideas, shared perspective, and a reminder that no one has the “messy middle” fully figured out yet.
Come ready to discuss:
- One thing that has changed since March
- One AI training challenge you are currently navigating
- One lesson learned from something that did not go exactly as planned
- One idea you might try, avoid, or rethink after hearing from others
We hope you’ll join us for an honest, useful, and trainer-focused conversation about supporting AI learning in law firms.
