What’s on tap for 2026 when it comes to generative AI?

In 2025, we saw greater adoption of generative artificial intelligence tools across all areas of the legal industry. Will 2026 bring more of the same? Or will there be a backlash or reaction of some sort?

What about the regulatory landscape for AI? Will 2026 bring federal guidelines, or will we have to wait for 2027 or beyond?

In this episode of Legal Rebels Podcast, Oliver Roberts talks to the ABA Journal’s Victor Li and predicts what we might see this year.

He is the co-director of the WashU Law AI Collaborative and is an adjunct professor at the Washington University School of Law in St. Louis. Roberts is also the editor-in-chief of the AI & the Law publication at the National Law Review; a co-chair of the AI practice group at Holtzman Vogel Baran Torchinsky & Josefiak; and the CEO and co-founder of Wickard.ai, a legal AI startup in education and training.
