Like many of us, my attitude toward generative AI (gen AI) has evolved drastically over the past few months. Once a fierce AI naysayer, I cringed at the thought that a robot could create content of the same caliber or even better than I could. ChatGPT could write a blog post in seconds, but what about originality? I soon realized that my biggest complaints were rooted in my fear of this tool, making my role as a writer moot.

From paralegals to marketers and beyond, we keep hearing that we must change how we operate. Let technology enhance our work and replace the mundane tasks that eat our time and energy. That is all good and well in theory, but it doesn’t provide a roadmap for evolving our practice and often leaves us with more questions than answers.
