About this episode

A trusted depth of data helps genAI infuse into the legal world more effectively and accurately, but not all genAI is up to scratch.

Emily discusses the importance of human experts and trusted content in developing genAI and what industry leaders are doing to drive efficiency and find new integrations for AI that support business growth and improved legal practice.  

As always, stay tuned for the parting shots, that one tip, website, or observation that you can use the second the podcast ends.
