LawTech Talks: Why law firms can’t have AI without intuitive automation
In this special episode of LawTech Talks, produced in partnership with Actionstep, we explore the fundamental importance of taking a strategic approach to AI adoption and how and why AI and intuitive automation are deeply interconnected.
Host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Actionstep regional vice president in Australia and New Zealand, Zahn Nel, about the headline challenges law firms have faced in adopting and utilising AI, whether such challenges are preventing firms from fully embracing new technology, the extent to which lawyers remain undereducated about AI, how intuitive automation (IA) can enable law firms to adopt new tools and ways of working, and how identifying suitable platforms informs the formation of a strategic approach to technology utilisation.
Nel also delves into what intuitive automation is and why it is so essential in AI adoption, the risks inherent with attempting to adopt AI without IA, how firms can practically move forward, the fundamental questions firms must ask of themselves and their missions, how better strategy can help overcome inefficiency, and how Actionstep can support law firms on this journey.
