James McGregor is the founder of Ethical eDiscovery, a boutique consultancy focused on digital evidence and e-discovery. His core message is that legal teams should resist chasing AI for its own sake: get data organised, reduce unnecessary data, and define the real problem before buying new technology. He sees AI as valuable for streamlining routine work and improving access to justice, but only with strong human oversight.
