 UBIC (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, President Masahiro Morimoto), which is engaged in big data analysis business that makes full use of artificial intelligence when listed on TSE Mothers, will join the National Press Club in Washington, DC on June 6. We held a seminar on the practical use of artificial intelligence.This seminar is part of the quarterly "Signature Seminar Series" held by UBIC in the United States with experts in the legal profession, and this time the title is "A Predictive Analytic Approach to Investigations and Regulatory Disputes through Artificial Intelligence". With the attendance of more than 20 lawyers, government officials and litigation consultants in the DC area, cutting-edge analysis using artificial intelligence for litigation, investigation by law enforcement agencies, and information governance is becoming indispensable. A discussion was held on the current situation.
 
 The seminar began with an explanation by Paul Starrett, Executive Officer of UBIC Headquarters and UBIC North America, Inc. Counsel & Chief Global Risk Officer, on big data definition and analysis methods.He is the representative of the Big Data Committee at the American Bar Association (ABA), the largest bar association in the United States.
 
 In response to the current situation where the use of artificial intelligence is indispensable as a big data analysis method, the first panel discussion discussed measures to identify, avoid or mitigate the risks that occur in the activities of the organization.Rather than a passive approach of how to deal with problems after they occur, using the latest technology and taking active risk analysis and preventive measures will result in a lower cost than post-incident measures. The debate was developed on the issue thatDavid Shonka, on behalf of the US Federal Trade Commission, took the stage in this panel discussion, which also attracted attention from the perspective of the crackdown.
 
 In the final panel discussion, discussions were held on a more practical approach to litigation, investigation, and information governance from the perspective of lawyers and vendor engineers who are actually using artificial intelligence and Predictive Coding.In order to analyze human behavior patterns from a huge amount of data and find out the slightest signs of risk and important evidence, it becomes impossible to respond without information analysis using the latest technology. In light of the current situation, lawyers have come to the conclusion that they should actively recommend the technology.
