Join WilmerHale during New York Arbitration Week 2026 for this unique event in which a panel of international arbitration titans will go toe-to-toe with AI. This powerhouse panel will debate various relevant and hot issues in international arbitration today, with a twist: They will debate not only with each other, but with Claude as well. Neither the panel nor Claude (operated live by Sam Winter-Barker, Special Counsel at WilmerHale) will have seen the questions before the event, meaning that this debate will truly test whether AI can compete with some of the greatest minds in the field.

Following a lively debate, in which the panel can expect their views to be probed by Claude’s almost infinite knowledge, the floor will be opened for discussion of whether the panel met their match in Claude and, whether they did or not, what this means for our practices now and in the future.
