The emergence of ‘AI agents’ and the concept of ‘agentic AI’ is drawing attention in the legal tech sector, as these autonomous systems become prevalent in legal workflows and everyday practice. Legal tech companies and law firms are increasingly incorporating these technologies.

Troutman Pepper Locke has also employed agentic AI workflows to streamline its merger operations.
This movement towards agentic AI raises vital questions about their application and distinction from existing technologies, particularly their implications for the legal industry. For more insight, you can explore the full context at Legal Tech News.
