New entrants to the legal profession will be competing head on against Kim, the virtual assistant from Riverview Law, and Ross, IBM Watson's'super-intelligent' attorney, in delivering services to clients. Ross, unlike most of us, has the ability to research every resource of legal knowledge in seconds, and, even more impressive to the older ones among us, remember it. There's no doubt that clients will always value negotiating skills, judgement, ethical standards and reassurance from their lawyers but if the apprentice style of learning at the expert's knee is going to be overtaken by Kim and Ross, how will the profession generate the experienced advisers that clients seek to consult? Clients seek good value for money from their law firms and those expectations change over time. In the past, certain tasks were seen as good value for money. Now, as tasks become more familiar, technology enables a more efficient delivery.
