AI in Legal Practice: Assessing Use Cases and Impacts on Daily Operations

In the rapidly evolving world of legal profession, Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications are increasingly becoming part of the day-to-day proceedings. Over the past year, the legal community is gradually transitioning into what is becoming recognised as a ChatGPT world. However, this era is marked by the promise of significant, yet non-specific changes.

With AI and generative models like GPT already showing signs of potential utility, it is crucial to investigate and understand their actual use cases and impacts in the legal sector. How are they utilised in daily routines? Are they beneficial or detrimental to the practice, and in what ways?

Last year marked the start of significant engagement and dialogue in the legal community about the potential applications, implications, and considerations around AI in lawyering. However, the extent and nature of these applications are yet to be thoroughly examined. Therefore, a systematic investigation is needed to gauge the use and impact of AI on the routine activities of legal professionals.

A survey is currently being conducted to get valuable insights from legal professionals regarding their thoughts, perceptions, and experiences with AI in their practices. Participants can anonymously share their thoughts and also get a chance to win a $250 gift card. These inputs from the field will provide crucial insights into the current state of adoption of AI in the legal profession and may potentially inform future directions and recommendations.
