AI Strategy & Governance


AI Strategy & Governance

How to think strategically and understand how #AI can be used to create fair #algorithms, increase #datasecurity, and help us remain in compliance with related #laws and #regulations.


I would like to share some of what I learned to spread #knowledge and #awareness on this topic, and link it with the legal field, since it is a subject still not well understood specially by all workers in this field.


AI systems leverage intelligent algorithms that classify, analyze, and make predictions from large amounts of #data. These algorithms are trained using large #datasets (i.e. “training data”) so that they can identify patterns in data, make predictions, and recommend actions.

#artificialintelligence and #machinelearning (ML) are common phrases nowadays, and very few people are still unaware of them. However, any time a new idea launches, people are pretty reluctant to accept it. Lawyers and legal professionals are no exception.


Having concerns about AI taking your place?

Even with widespread adoption of AI, attorneys will still be vitally important. AI can’t make a convincing presentation to a jury. Technology can’t fully weigh the factors that go into the many strategic decisions, large and small, that get made over the course of any litigation matter. It can’t replace the human element of relationships with clients. And a computer can’t play a leadership role in motivating a team of attorneys to produce their best work.


In short, it would be a mistake to use the extraordinary advances of AI to minimize the importance of the human element in the practice of law. But it would be just as big a mistake to dismiss the role of AI, which will fundamentally reshape the landscape for both providers and users of legal services.


Let’s explore a few impactful ways that law firms, in-house legal teams, and the public sector are using AI and ML: "Smart data management \ Automatic reminders \ Contract review and analysis \ Ease of Legal research \ Elimination of time-consuming tasks \ Accurate result prediction \ Accurate risk assessment \ etc."


Among the #risks that cause anxiety for AI users are #cyberthreats and #privacy. According to recent research conducted by a malpractice insurer, cyberattacks affected 22% of legal firms.


All in all, Do you want to develop your legal firm? Start with a change management strategy.

What will be the method of presenting technology to lawyers and clients?
