GenAI – where we stand and where we’re heading
“It is not the answer to everything, but AI can certainly provide that additional level of help that can improve the client experience.”
So fast has been the evolution of GenAI over the last two or three years that any assessment of its use and future potential can be rendered almost obsolete within weeks by technological developments.
On the alumni website we talk to three Linklaters partners – Shilpa Bhandarkar, head of the firm’s Client Tech & AI team; Sonia Cissé, leader of the Technology, Commercial and Privacy team in Paris; and Marc Harvey, London Litigation partner. All three are members of the GenAI Steering Group.
The trio look at the positive impact that AI has already made on both the firm and the profession, as well as offering a word of warning on potential pitfalls that may lie ahead.
Understanding, responsibility and ambition – how Linklaters strives to achieve the right GenAI balance
