WHAT WILL ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE MEAN FOR LITIGATION?

Written by Justice Elizabeth A. Grimes, Justice Jon B. Streeter & Michael G. Colantuono*

INTRODUCTION

Generative artificial intelligence, or "AI," is the latest in a series of disruptive technologies that have fundamentally altered the practice of law over the course of our careers. It is much in the news, of course, and we know little about how this rapidly developing technology will affect the world around us. But we can make observations about how it is used today and offer some thoughts about the issues that will arise as AI develops.

We briefly discuss the risks and rewards of AI, current public and private regulatory responses, identify ethical issues, summarize uses of AI in the law practice, and consider its implications for the development of our substantive law and its potential impact on our democracy.
