Bringing Clarity to the Confusion of AI

As the legal industry seeks to move ahead with new AI technologies that solve real-world problems, look to Thomson Reuters for guidance and support as you navigate the new normal.

In our white paper, “Demystifying Artificial Intelligence (AI): A legal professional’s 7-step guide through the noise,” you’ll learn that AI is not a single technology, but rather a number of different technologies applied in different functions through various applications.

You’ll recognize that AI technologies are all around us – such as Amazon® Alexa responding to your requests or Spotify® building you a recommended music playlist based on your listening habits – because everywhere we turn, machines are starting to act like human advisors, making recommendations and suggesting alternatives.

You’ll also discover that, in the legal industry, AI already appears in lawyers’ workflows every day. Law firm tech budgets are rising significantly and in RFPs, clients are increasingly asking about firms’ AI capabilities.

Where is AI development heading in the legal market?

The current drive is to leverage AI across a range of legal applications:

  • For legal research, providing specific answers to common, well-defined types of legal questions and supporting those answers with links to court decisions and sources

  • For litigation strategy, predicting from court dockets how a judge might rule on a motion, or what is the best venue

  • For eDiscovery, predicting whether a given document among thousands is likely to be responsive to a given request – more accurately and cheaply than by human review

  • For self-help online legal services, guiding users through questions that recur frequently, like: “Is this person an employee or a contractor?”

  • For contract review, helping lawyers analyze volumes of contracts that an acquisition target holds to find the total contract value and hidden risks

Helping to shape the future of legal AI

Combining intelligence, technology, and human expertise, Thomson Reuters legal know-how has long enabled our customers to solve problems faster, work more efficiently, find the right answers more easily, and reach critical decisions with greater confidence.

Today, technology brings a new opportunity in harnessing artificial intelligence technologies to provide real-world benefits to lawyers.
