Dr Lance Eliot reveals what AI Machine Learning brings to the table for the practice of law
In brief
- The emerging use of artificial intelligence for the performance of legal activities.
There is a kind of magic taking place in the practice of law that involves the emerging use of artificial intelligence (AI) for the performance of legal activities. Similar to traditional magic, there is an effect and a set of underlying methods that come to play with the deployment and use of AI. Let’s consider some of the effects’ aspects:
- When preparing for a complex legal case, you use an AI-powered system to identify precedents from a vast corpus of prior cases and are readily armed with relevant cases that bolster your position.
- Using an AI-based predictive piece of software, you obtain a prediction of how the judge for an ongoing court matter will likely rule and thus enables you to assess how to best argue your case.
- Tasked with putting together a complicated contract, you can rapidly assemble an initial draft via the use of an AI-enabled
