Showbiz wisdom dictates that you give the people what they want, and apparently there’s some crossover appeal to the practice of law as well. On Monday, the law firm Paul Hastings  launched a new practice group devoted specifically to issues surrounding artificial intelligence (AI).

According to the group’s co-chair, Robert Silvers, the practice was formed in response to popular demand from clients, many of whom are just beginning to dip a toe into the AI waters and want to make sure there are no sharks lurking nearby.
