Richard Boone (Partner-New York, NY), and Daniel Tranen (Partner-St. Louis, MO) will present the Wilson Elser Forum webinar “Generative AI and the Future of Coverage Litigation” on May 12, 2026. This presentation explores how the rapid rise of generative AI is creating new and complex challenges for the insurance industry, both as a source of novel claims and as a powerful tool insurers are increasingly adopting in their claims-handling processes, and what that means for the future of coverage litigation. The session examines real-world AI-related lawsuits, from claims accusing companies of overstating their AI capabilities to those alleging discrimination tied to automated hiring tools, and considers how existing policies may or may not address them. The presenters explore the growing trend of AI-specific coverage and policy exclusions, offering practical steps insurers can take to proactively prepare for discovery challenges related to their AI use, as well as guidance for policyholders, brokers, underwriters, and claims professionals seeking to identify and close gaps in coverage. Whether you work in insurance, practice law, or simply want to understand how AI is reshaping risk and liability on both sides of the coverage equation, this presentation offers a clear, accessible overview of the issues that matter most today.
