The legal industry's AI landscape – part 1 – Nexlaw Partners

AI is buzzing in the legal industry. It's time to separate hype from reality. I was recently invited to speak on artificial intelligence in law at the annual LMA conference along with an outstanding panel of industry experts (read my summary here). During my talk I offered a simplified view of the AI landscape of vendors and technologies in play and received great feedback and many requests for further detail. This feedback is consistent with many conversations I've had regarding legal AI over the past few years: it's hard to distinguish fact from reality, and practical examples of AI in this industry are hard to come by.
