How Artificial Intelligence Is Making It Critical to Control Transactions of Data

This article was co-authored by Henry Croyden, CEO of TonkaBi and Jonathon Croydon, Product Director, TonkaBI

With the rapid expansion of technology entering every field of business, manufacturers and service providers are being presented with previously unconsidered opportunities to reap value from the reuse and repurpose of data initially collected and harvested for other reasons. Learned intelligence through artificial intelligence (AI) systems provides value for the processor not previously realized or recognized in transactions. This is particularly true when considering how AI companies that work with insurers to optimize their claims processing are left with a valuable resource after the data collection is complete. This article addresses how the value of a neural network has been ignored and should be considered when an insurer considers outsourcing its claims processing.1

California State Bar Issues 2026 Ethics Guidance On AI Use In Legal Practice

Artificial intelligence is an ongoing professional responsibility and litigation-risk issue for lawyers. The California State Bar recently published new guidance. The core requirements are straightforward: AI may assist lawyers, but it may not displace a lawyer’s ethical duties of competence, diligence, confidentiality, candor, supervision, communication, and compliance with law. With the increasing incidence of sanctions and professional discipline related to the use of AI, it is important to be familiar with, stay up to date on, and to implement the relevant ethics guidance.

Navigating Ex Parte Contact With Health Care Providers In Medical Malpractice Litigation

In Snyder v. Virginia Mason Medical Center, No. 104136-5 (Wash. Oct. 1, 2026), the Washington Supreme Court held that corporate defense counsel, risk managers, and claims adjusters may not communicate ex parte with a hospital’s former employee health care providers about patient care. The Court reaffirmed Loudon v. Mhyre, 110 Wn.2d 675, 756 P.2d 138 (1988) prohibiting ex parte communication by defense counsel with a plaintiff’s treating physicians, held that prejudice is presumed when Loudon is violated, and ruled that a quality improvement (QI) committee member’s involvement in defense strategy waives the committee’s statutory privilege under Wash. Rev. Code § 70.41.200.

Employment Tip Of The Month – October 2026

There are currently 19 states that legally require employers to permit employees (and sometimes former employees) to view and/or obtain a copy of their personnel file. As of November 8, 2026, that number will increase to 20, when New York’s recently enacted Personnel Records Access Law goes into effect. The majority of states have no law requiring access to personnel files and there is no federal law that confers on current or former employees a statutory right to access their personnel files.
