Fresh Voices on Legal Tech with Cat Moon

LEGAL TALK NETWORK
About this episode

Lawyers have long been hesitant to adopt technology, but the rapid advancements in generative AI have sparked a new curiosity in many attorneys. Are we heading toward a mindset shift in the profession and a swift increase in tech use? Dennis and Tom welcome Cat Moon to the podcast to get her take on the current state of AI and other technologies in the legal world. Drawing from her expertise in working with both practicing attorneys and law students, Cat shares insights on experimentation in her AI-focused lab work, collaboration strategies, tech education, and the vital importance of humble curiosity. 

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