Amplifying Legal Expertise

Summary

Amplifying expertise has taken many forms over the years, including templates, books, white papers, journal articles, blogs, courses, seminars, speaking engagements, webinars, podcasts, and social media posts. However, these forms of amplification are limited in that they are not interactive. Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers lawyers the opportunity to change this. Law is context specific, but AI can enable lawyers to teach an AI how to respond in various situations, and then sit back while it works. Legal AI (and other technology and process improvements) offer the opportunity to build value in the firm and its systems, instead of only its lawyers, making a law firm more than the sum of its people. This enhancement means lawyers can reach their fullest potential, practice their best law. As firms and companies share more and more of their expertise in the form of AI models, we may see a further homogenization of law firm quality.
