What law firms aren’t telling you about AI

News broke last week that the first ever AI law firm had been given the green light by the SRA. The rush by law firms to adopt Artificial Intelligence has been the standout feature of the past two years.

So on this episode of the podcast, Catrin and Christian are joined by tech editor Lucie Cruz and director of insight Matt Byrne to discuss firms’ differing responses, what they should be doing, and whether everyone is replaceable.
