Legal Work to Win the AI Race

Thinking like a lawyer is that much more important.

Me: "It will ask your clients the questions you ask, and then produce a term sheet that is based off your latest internal template and email it to them."

They: "They send in their comments and we draft the definitive documents?"

"Or this second AI Agent can take in their comments and the term sheet and prepare a first draft of the SSA and SHA and email it to you, or... them."

"It then comes back for revisions and with comments. An AI Agent for that too?"

"I think you get your team involved at this stage and negotiate. Get an AI Agent to take notes."

"Why is that? No agent for that?"

I pause.

You might be thinking, is this too complex for an AI Agent?

I am thinking more about how and where to bring humans in the loop.

In a simple workflow, it might be that the user or client is facing the hand-off.

Where professionals are involved, it might be a professional.

Professionals have to take responsibility, and clients/customers have to own outcomes.

"If there's an AI agent for everything, what do we do?"

Answering this involves you having a deeper insight into your own work.

I believe the future will be written by those who understand how to adapt to AI and yet, have a post-AI understanding of-

(1) why they are important;

(2) what creates real value (and what doesn't); and

(3) what should not be replaced by machines.

Will those who do this best be the true winners of the AI race?

P.S: We recently launched our new website here. More AI agents coming soon!
