My Downing Street Phone Was Stolen: Proving (or Disproving) GenAI, Hacks, and Ephemeral Communications in Disputes.

Join us for a rountable discussion with Canapés and Champagne. 

Our esteemed speakers will discuss the following;

1) “Digital therapy” for high‑net‑worth individuals

When a client is convinced they’ve been hacked, what does a defensible forensic triage look like? How do you distinguish between anxiety, misinformation, and genuine compromise?

The panelists will walk through a fictitious case study addressing crisis strategy and the management of online reputation.

2) Detecting GenAI‑created content

How to assess authenticity signals across text, images, and supporting artefacts, and how to avoid over‑claiming when false positives remain a real risk.

Using an example of a regulatory investigation, we will illustrate the limitations of algorithmic control and hallucinations.

3) Short‑form messaging and collaboration tools

How to respond when key conversations take place in Teams, Slack, or WhatsApp‑style threads and some messages “disappear”; and how to preserve context and metadata using Short Message Format (SMF) so review and production accurately reflect how communications were sent and received.

Leading to a discussion about the discovery of AI prompts and other forms of loose lips that sink ships and how that impacts legal privilege.
