He highlights the importance of secure, tailored AI integrations to address privacy concerns and notes that adoption has grown organically among staff. Rather than replacing jobs, AI is reshaping them, creating hybrid roles like legal engineers. While optimistic about innovations like AI agents, he stresses that explainable, domain-specific AI will be the key to lasting transformation in the legal sector.
