On this episode, host Paul W. Grimm speaks with Professor Maura R. Grossman about the fundamentals of artificial intelligence and its growing influence on the legal system. They explore what AI is (and isn't), how machine learning and natural language processing work, and the differences between traditional automation and modern generative AI. In layman's terms, they discuss other key concepts, such as supervised and unsupervised learning, reinforcement training, and deepfakes, and other advances that have accelerated AI's development. Finally, they address a few potential risks of generative AI, including hallucinations, bias, and misuse in court, which sets the stage for a deeper conversation about legal implications on the next episode, "To Trust or Not to Trust: AI in Legal Practice." ABOUT THE HOSTJudge Paul W. Grimm (ret.) is the David F. Levi Professor of the Practice of Law and Director of the Bolch Judicial Institute at Duke Law School. From December 2012 until his retirement in December 2022, he served as a district judge of the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, with chambers in Greenbelt, Maryland.

Welcome to 'AI Lawyer Talking Tech.' Today, we explore how artificial intelligence is fundamentally changing the legal profession, bringing both profound opportunities and complex challenges. AI is transforming daily legal work, from revolutionizing legal research and document drafting to improving case management and intellectual property filings, promising increased efficiency and cost savings. This technological shift also influences how lawyers are educated and licensed, highlighting the growing demand for practical skills and adaptability in new legal associates. However, integrating AI demands careful consideration of ethical dilemmas, such as the risk of "hallucinations" and embedded biases, underscoring the vital need for human oversight and verification of AI-generated content. Join us as we examine the evolving regulatory landscape where states are establishing guardrails around AI use in areas from healthcare to the workplace, emphasizing transparency and consumer protection.Cultivating practice readiness: New report highlights need for radical change in law school and bar admissions07 Aug 2025Thomson Reuters InstituteAI in HR Investigations: Game-Changer or Pandora's Box?07 Aug 2025Baker Donelson Bearman Caldwell & Berkowitz PCLessons learned from the infamous ChatGPT lawyers06 Aug 2025Legal.ThomsonReuters.comHow states are placing guardrails around AI in the absence of strong federal regulation06 Aug 2025Brooklyn Daily EagleThe Must-Have Skill for First-Year Legal Associates in 2025: Adaptability06 Aug 2025Attorney at Law MagazineWhat Is Agentic AI?

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you looking for advice on how to keep a firm running smoothly? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews Gary Allen, a lawyer-turned-legal tech founder who shares lessons learned from witnessing two law firm collapse. Gary talks about inefficiencies and cultural barriers in traditional firms, then explains how these experiences inspired the creation of Lean Law.Gary shares his thoughts on the issues that can lead to the collapse of a law firm. One big issue is too much overhead in comparison to what a firm is making. In Gary's experience, his former employer paid too much overhead (i.e. rent, utilities), but the firm did not bring in as many clients which led to a lack of money being generated. There needs to be a formula that is followed to ensure clients are being brought in so a business can sustain itself. Another issue is time overhead, in which lawyers are working but the hours are not billable. This can cause lawyers to put in so much time and energy into work that they cannot be paid for.Gary delves into the creation of Lean Law, which is a company focused on streamlining law firm financial management through technology. Lean Law is the financial operating system for many law firms and helps firms process legal fees. It integrates Quickbooks, so firms can personalize their financial management to ensure fees flow in and out of the firm. It is a great tool for law firms to have so all finances are streamlined and money is in order.Take a listen!01:11 Lessons from Large Firm Failure03:27 Transition to a Healthier Firm10:57 Overhead Awareness and Cost Control 12:09 Transition to Legal Tech: The Spark for Lean Law 14:44 Vision for All-in-One Legal Software 30:58 AI Disrupting Legal Marketing and PPC Tune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here. Connect with Gary:Website Facebook  Facebook Gary LinkedIn Gary Linkedin  X Youtube 

This week, we welcome longtime friend and legal tech veteran Ken Crutchfield, founder of Spring Forward Consulting. Ken brings his extensive experience from major legal information vendors like Thomson Reuters, Bloomberg, and Wolters Kluwer into a timely and candid discussion about the current phase of artificial intelligence in the legal industry. Comparing today's generative AI surge to the American Industrial Revolution, Ken describes this moment as the “Wild West” era—full of promise, hype, overinvestment, and, critically, few rules.Drawing historical parallels to railroads, oil barons, and steel magnates, Ken illustrates how unchecked growth and technological innovation can outpace regulation until market forces or policy catch up. He notes the resurgence of large-scale infrastructure investment, now not in steel or steam, but in compute power and data centers. Just as J.P. Morgan helped stabilize chaotic markets in the 19th century, Ken suggests today's AI frontier needs a similar recalibration, and possibly new rules of engagement.The conversation shifts toward the practical realities of legal tech adoption. Ken emphasizes that law firms' expectations of perfection often collide with startups' resource limitations. Vendors need to rethink how they engage with firms by building credibility, focusing on integration, and delivering actual use-case wins. Firms, in turn, must move beyond the billable hour mindset and consider new metrics like Return on Experience. Adoption is no longer optional, it's strategic, competitive, and increasingly client-driven.Ken also unpacks the looming implications of content rights and data ownership in the age of AI. If firms aren't investing in data hygiene now, they risk being left behind when more sophisticated AI tools demand clean, structured, and secure datasets. AI isn't just about automating workflows, it's about being ready to plug into a future where interoperability, metadata, and permissions will dictate who thrives and who gets leapfrogged.Finally, Ken calls for scenario planning: not just reacting to what OpenAI or Anthropic might do next, but anticipating it. Firms and vendors alike should double down on what works, define success before launching new projects, and invest in meaningful adoption strategies. In a world moving this fast, it's no longer about who gets there first, it's about who gets there with a plan.Listen on mobile platforms:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[Special Thanks to ⁠Legal Technology Hub⁠ for their sponsoring this episode.] Blue Sky: ⁠⁠@geeklawblog.com⁠⁠ ⁠⁠@marlgeb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: geekinreviewpodcast@gmail.comMusic: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jerry David DeCicca⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Transcript

What happens when a Harvard-trained corporate lawyer, tired of copying and pasting contract language, starts reading about self-driving cars? In Shashank Bijapur's case, it sparked the creation of SpotDraft, a contract lifecycle management company that just raised $54 million in Series B funding and that counts major companies such as Airbnb among its customers. In this episode of LawNext, host Bob Ambrogi sits down with Bijapur, CEO and cofounder of SpotDraft, to explore his journey from White & Case associate to legal tech entrepreneur. It all began with that pivotal New Year's Eve moment – working on due diligence while eating Chinese food and reading about Elon Musk's self-driving cars – that made him realize something fundamental: Cars were driving themselves but lawyers were still stuck copying and pasting contract language. The conversation traces SpotDraft's evolution from its original version as an AI redlining platform to becoming a comprehensive CLM solution. Bijapur shares the hard-won lessons of pivoting when their initial AI approach proved only as accurate as a coin toss, and how co-building with early customers who believed in their vision helped shape the product into what it is today. They also dive deep into how generative AI is transforming contract management, get a preview of SpotDraft's new AI assistant called Sidebar, launching to the public next month, and discuss practical implementation challenges based on insights from SpotDraft's recent survey on AI adoption in legal departments. Looking ahead, they discuss where the CLM market is heading in the age of generative AI. Throughout the discussion, Bijapur reflects on the entrepreneurial journey itself – learning to sell when trained to be demure, developing an appetite for risk after being taught to be risk-averse, and discovering that every startup milestone brings new challenges that require completely different approaches. It's a candid look at both the technical and human sides of building a legal tech company.  Thank You To Our Sponsors This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.

Managed service providers (MSPs) are increasingly becoming essential partners for mid-market organizations, with a recent Barracuda Networks survey revealing that 85% of firms with 1,000 to 2,000 employees now depend on MSPs for integrated security support. This shift highlights the growing complexity of cybersecurity challenges that these organizations face, as they seek to manage a multitude of disconnected security tools. The survey indicates a willingness among 92% of organizations to pay a premium for enhanced support, emphasizing the need for MSPs to demonstrate technical mastery and deliver ongoing value.The podcast discusses the implications of this trend, noting that while MSPs may feel indispensable, they are also facing pressure from vendors who are building direct relationships with mid-market clients. The demand for 24/7 security coverage and transparency about security practices is high, with many organizations willing to switch providers if their needs are not met. This creates a challenging environment for MSPs, who must evolve from being mere resellers of security tools to becoming orchestrators of comprehensive security outcomes.Additionally, the episode covers the ongoing licensing disputes between Siemens and Broadcom following Broadcom's acquisition of VMware. The shift from perpetual licenses to subscription models has led to significant price increases, causing frustration among enterprise customers. As organizations like Siemens seek alternatives, the podcast highlights the growing market for VMware exit planning and license optimization services, presenting opportunities for IT providers to assist clients in navigating these challenges.Finally, the discussion touches on broader trends in software licensing and the rise of open-source solutions as enterprises grapple with compliance issues. The increasing use of unapproved AI tools, known as Shadow AI, among employees poses additional risks, prompting IT leaders to seek trusted partners who can help them manage these complexities. The episode concludes by emphasizing the need for MSPs to pivot from reactive approaches to strategic advisory roles, guiding clients through the evolving landscape of technology and security.

In this episode of The Geek in Review, guest host Marcie Borgal Shunk of the Tilt Institute joins Marlene Gebauer for a thought-provoking discussion with Avaneesh Marwaha, CEO of Litera. As someone who led the company through both pre- and post-AI boom eras, Avaneesh offers an insider's perspective on what it takes to guide a legal tech organization through profound technological and cultural shifts. He speaks candidly about why he returned to Litera, what has changed internally, and how AI is being integrated not just into products, but into the DNA of the company itself.Avaneesh shares how Litera transitioned from an acquisition-heavy growth strategy to one that prioritizes internal AI innovation. This shift required rethinking everything from leadership talent to product development cycles. He emphasizes that meaningful adoption of AI goes far beyond surface-level integrations, calling instead for a reinvention of workflows, organizational structure, and employee mindsets. Daily AI usage is expected at Litera, but not in a checkbox kind of way. Instead, teams are challenged to use AI tools to accelerate decision-making, increase efficiency, and share insights across departments.One of the more pressing challenges Avaneesh highlights is “adoption fatigue.” While excitement around generative AI brought in billions of investment dollars and an explosion of legal tech startups, the sheer volume of pilots and proof-of-concept tools is starting to wear thin with law firm users. To combat this, Avaneesh argues that AI needs to be native to workflows—integrated directly into Word, Outlook, and other familiar environments—so lawyers aren't forced into unnatural digital pivots just to use new tools.The conversation also explores agentic workflows—AI-driven processes that take action based on inputs, like automatically triaging emails or assisting in business development. Avaneesh shares that Litera has several of these tools set to launch, all co-built with customers. But he's cautious: if AI doesn't return value within a six-minute lawyer mindset, the tools get dropped. It's not about flash, it's about results.Looking ahead, Avaneesh envisions a legal industry where AI removes the "busy work" and gives lawyers the space to tackle truly complex problems. Rather than displacing attorneys, AI will help them focus on higher-order thinking, better client service, and proactive problem-solving. But for that future to arrive, the industry needs to move past its fear of change, embrace a growth mindset, and be willing to reimagine what legal work looks like from the ground up.Listen on mobile platforms:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[Special Thanks to ⁠Legal Technology Hub⁠ for their sponsoring this episode.] Blue Sky: ⁠⁠@geeklawblog.com⁠⁠ ⁠⁠@marlgeb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: geekinreviewpodcast@gmail.comMusic: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jerry David DeCicca⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Transcript

AI models have a defined memory ceiling, which is reshaping the ongoing debates surrounding copyright and data privacy. Recent research from Meta, Google DeepMind, Cornell, and NVIDIA reveals that large language models have a fixed memorization capacity of approximately 8.6 bits per parameter. This finding clarifies the distinction between memorized data and generalized knowledge, indicating that larger datasets do not necessarily lead to increased memorization of specific data points. This understanding is crucial as it informs the operational mechanisms of AI models and addresses concerns related to copyright infringement.Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google, has introduced the term "artificial jagged intelligence" to describe the current phase of AI development, highlighting the non-linear progress and the challenges faced by researchers despite significant advancements. Pichai's perspective reflects the mixed performance of AI models, which can exhibit extraordinary capabilities alongside notable errors. This sentiment is echoed by deep learning researcher Andrej Karpathy, emphasizing the unpredictability of AI performance and the need for a more nuanced understanding of its capabilities.The rise of AI retrieval bots is transforming how users access information online, with a significant increase in traffic from these bots. Companies like OpenAI and Anthropic are deploying these bots to summarize content in real-time, moving away from traditional search methods that provide links to multiple sources. This shift poses challenges for content publishers, as the growth of retrieval bots indicates a changing economic landscape where content is increasingly consumed by AI first, with human users following. Publishers may need to rethink their engagement strategies to adapt to this new reality.In the broader context of technology and cybersecurity, WhatsApp's intervention in a legal case concerning encryption and privacy rights highlights the growing role of platforms in surveillance debates. Additionally, the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency faces leadership challenges amid a talent exodus, raising concerns about its operational effectiveness. As the IT services industry evolves, the integration of AI into various sectors, including hiring and cybersecurity, underscores the importance of execution, interoperability, and trust in automation. The future of technology will depend on how well businesses can navigate these changes and support their clients in making informed decisions.  Four things to know today  00:00 AI's Jagged Reality: Study Reveals Limits to Model Memory as Bots Redefine the Web Economy05:35 Cybersecurity Crossroads: WhatsApp Joins Apple in Legal Fight as U.S. Agency Leadership Crumbles08:29 AI Matures Into Infrastructure Layer as IT Vendors Shift Focus to Outcomes and Execution11:51 Legal Tech, GenAI, and Fast Food Bots All Show One Thing: Hype Doesn't Equal Success  This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

In this episode of Redefining CyberSecurity, Sean Martin is joined by Frida Torkelsen, a Solution Architect, and Maged Helmy, a professor of AI, to explore how law firms and in-house counsel are applying AI agents to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and unlock strategic capabilities—while navigating critical privacy and security concerns.Frida explains how large firms are seeking to extract value from their troves of historical legal data through bespoke AI agents designed to automate workflows and improve institutional knowledge sharing. Smaller firms, on the other hand, benefit by building narrow, purpose-driven agents that automate core functions and give them a tactical edge. This democratization of capability—fueled by faster iteration and reduced development cost—could be a strategic win for niche firms that are disciplined in their focus.Maged emphasizes the architectural shift AI agents introduce. Unlike static queries to large language models with fixed knowledge, agents access tools, data, and live systems to execute tasks dynamically. This expands the use case potential—but also the risk. Because agentic systems operate probabilistically, consistent outputs aren't guaranteed, and testing becomes more about evaluating outcomes across a range of inputs than expecting deterministic results.Security risk looms large. Maged shares how a single oversight in permissions allowed an agent to make system-wide changes that corrupted his environment. Frida cautions against over-permissive access, noting that agents tapping into shared calendars or HR databases must respect internal boundaries and compliance obligations. Both guests agree that human-in-the-loop validation is essential, especially in environments with strict data governance needs.Law firms must reassess both internal information architecture and team readiness before implementing agentic systems. Start with a clear understanding of the business problem, validate access scopes, and track outcomes for accuracy, speed, and cost. Legal tech teams are forming around these efforts, but success will depend on whether these roles stay grounded in solving specific legal problems—not chasing the latest AI trend.⬥SPONSORS⬥LevelBlue: https://itspm.ag/attcybersecurity-3jdk3ThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974⬥RESOURCES⬥Newsletter: The Law's Great Recalibration: Inside the Tech-Driven Puzzle of Legal Firm Transformation: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/laws-great-recalibration-inside-tech-driven-puzzle-sean-martin-cissp-clnoe/⬥ADDITIONAL INFORMATION⬥✨ More Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast:
