In the current landscape of legal practice, having programming know-how can open new doors by improving and automating processes. George Zalepa at Greenberg Traurig argues that legal professionals lacking this expertise can still leverage the power of technology to streamline their work, thanks to generative artificial intelligence. While once a steep learning curve associated with understanding code might have served as a deterrent, it is no longer an insurmountable barrier.
As per Zalepa’s article, technologies such as generative AI are presenting new opportunities for lawyers to harness automation and other tech solutions without needing to master coding. This development seems to level the playing field, allowing those professionals who have not had the chance to learn programming an equal opportunity to utilize the advancements in technology.
