How is AI Transforming Legal Workflows and Decision-Making?
?
Five panelists helped answer this question during DISCO’s session in Dallas yesterday. Here’s what you need to know:
1?? Why Firms Hesitate on AI:
Fear of inconsistent adoption, privacy concerns, proprietary data security, and limited internal expertise.
2?? Strategic AI Adoption:
Start small, educate teams, build internal SMEs, and leverage trusted partners.
Tailor AI solutions to specific practice areas and workflows, ensuring consistency across cases.
3?? Quick Wins with AI:
Dramatic efficiency gains in internal investigations, reducing turnaround from weeks to hours.
Immediate savings and efficiency in generating deposition summaries and trial preparation.
4?? Effective AI Workflows:
Move beyond linear review to AI-driven workflows that leverage topic clustering, chatbots, and Q&A tools for rapid insights.
Invest proactively in building reusable AI models specific to recurring litigation tasks.
5?? Avoiding AI Pitfalls:
Mitigate risks like AI hallucinations by selecting the right model (e.g., constitutional AI or closed-loop systems).
Always validate AI outputs. Defensibility and predictability matter.
The Bottom Line:
AI is already reshaping eDiscovery, there’s no way around it. Embrace it strategically, educate teams continuously, and adopt workflows that enhance consistency, speed, and defensibility.
