Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are being widely adopted. Last year’s RELX Emerging Tech Executive Report shows that 81% of senior executives polled across multiple industries say their businesses are using AI—which reflects a 33-point uptick from 2018—and nearly all say that AI makes their business stronger. Nearly two-thirds say that AI made their businesses more resilient during the pandemic, with half investing in new AI technologies in 2019 and 2020.

The legal industry, like others, considers AI a driver of business and legal success, helping them develop more successful strategies, make more informed decisions, reduce costs, improve productivity and more. Among legal industry respondents in the RELX report, 72% say their organization is currently using AI.
