How 2026 Will Reshape Technology and AI Law by David Pierce
How 2026 Will Reshape Technology and AI Law
Technology and AI Risk in 2026 Is Governed Through States, Enforcement, and Contracts
In 2026, the legal risk that technology and artificial intelligence pose in the United States is shaped less by a single comprehensive federal
Editor’s Note: In 2026, shrinking organic reach and autonomous search agents are changing what “visibility” even means—and press releases are being rebuilt as influence infrastructure rather than legacy copy. For CMOs and communications leaders, the challenge isn’t writing better announcements; it’s engineering distribution and credibility across the systems that shape AI search and machine-cited answers.
February! It’s the month of love! It’s the month of taxes! And, weirdly, a month of tangentially related tech?
Changes to Postmark rules
It’s tax season! If you send your tax return in by mail, you may want to drop it off a few days early. Recent changes to post office operations mean your mail
Good Sunday evening from Seattle . . . Our weekly Online Travel Update for the week ending Friday, February 20, 2026, is below. Last week we featured stories on the reported AI activities of Marriott and Hyatt, and this week we feature updates on both Wyndham and IHG. This week’s Update also offers a
As innovations continue to accelerate, the technology landscape in 2026 may reach a turning point, marking a shift from research and development (R&D) to adaptation. This year’s outlook highlights a shift towards smarter, autonomous systems that operate within the physical world. Organizations that embrace this shift may thrive, while those that lag behind may risk
With artificial intelligence, legal professionals are getting much more done in a day. But for law firms that bill primarily by the hour, this may not bode well. As lawyers complete their work faster for clients, they log fewer billable hours, which means less revenue for the firm.
Due to this conflict between efficiency and
The ABAJournal.com reported that “A federal judge in New York ruled Tuesday that documents that a Texas financial services executive created using artificial intelligence sent to his attorney did not qualify for privilege.” The February 17, 2026 article entitled “AI-created documents sent to attorney aren’t privileged, judge says” (https://tinyurl.com/3eyk6c9y) included this ruling from
As the 2026 Winter Olympics captivate audiences, one sport in particular―curling―stands out as the perfect metaphor for the challenge of prosecuting AI inventions before the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). Both arenas demand foresight, adaptability, and strategic thinking, whether it’s guiding a stone across the ice or shepherding an AI patent application through evolving legal terrain. Victory, in either case, belongs to those who embrace teamwork and anticipate the unexpected. Curling is often misjudged as slow or simple, but insiders know that it’s a chess match on ice, where teams slide polished granite stones across pebbled sheets, aiming for the house—the scoring target—while simultaneously disrupting the opposition’s setup. Wins are earned through foresight, precision, and the ability to pivot strategy as conditions change.
Just as innovation in curling equipment and strategy can shift the outcome on the ice, success in AI patent prosecution hinges on ingenuity and adaptability. Practitioners must respond to shifting legal guidance much like curlers adapt to changing ice, always ready to refine claims and strategies in response to examiner feedback.
