Lawyers and judges have to embrace artificial intelligence (AI)—‘albeit cautiously and responsibly’—Sir Geoffrey Vos, Master of the Rolls, has said.
Speaking last week at a LawtechUK event in London, Sir Geoffrey said lawyers need to understand AI because AI liability will be ‘one of the biggest fields of legal activity in years to come’. Moreover, AI will save time and money.
On the oft-quoted example of the New York lawyer who ended up with a fictitious case reference, Sir Geoffrey said: ‘We should not be using silly examples of bad practice as a reason to shun the entirety of a new technology.’
