Generative AI is one of the most disruptive technologies to come along for quite some time, and initial reactions have varied widely. Many have welcomed this new development with great enthusiasm while others have expressed caution, warning of job losses in the legal field as routine tasks become automated. Some pundits have raised substantial concerns regarding data privacy, security, provenance, and integrity.

Some downplay the impact of generative AI altogether, predicting that its adoption won’t bring about as much change as some claim. As attitudes continue to evolve, legal professionals and industry experts must stay educated and informed, considering the implications for those who adopt generative AI and those who choose not to.
