As law firms grapple with their internal policies on Artificial Intelligence (AI), their clients likewise seek to understand the ramifications of this rapidly evolving technology on their businesses. This need has led to a surge in demand for legal counsel specifically on the implications, opportunities, and challenges tied to AI. Large law firms are now stepping forward to meet this demand, often by establishing specialized AI client practices, designing new products, or recruiting additional experts with a technical background.
The legal industry’s growing interest in AI isn’t confined only to firms with a tech orientation. The proliferation of AI technology like ChatGPT has resulted in a broad wave of demand, impacting not just tech firms or startups venturing into AI technology. Clients across industries, despite ongoing skepticism about AI in the legal field, are propelling not only the need for specialized legal advice but also the adoption of AI within law firms themselves.
