Nori, who is also the keynote speaker at the upcoming Great Lakes Legal Conference, discusses the ethical and regulatory questions surrounding this technology, and looks ahead to consider what legal professionals and law students should do to prepare themselves for a future with increasing AI use in the practice of law. The episode is available on the Legal Talk Network (https://legaltalknetwork.com).
