AI in litigation is completely transforming how legal professionals approach the review process. However, for all its capabilities, misconceptions and false expectations of the technology are still widespread.
Like many other industries, legal professionals fear that AI is a potential threat to their job role. The truth, however, is quite different. AI is a powerful solution, but only when given the proper foundation and support from a qualified team.
In this blog post, we'll explore AI in litigation and four essential tips to ensure your firm uses AI safely and effectively.
Getting the most out of an AI solution means knowing it inside out. For example, you might have a tool that can identify the relationships between words and phrases but can't decipher information from images or media-based formats.
Understanding that using this tool wouldn't be wise for a batch of images or scanned documents is how to make your eDiscovery processes more efficient.
One of the most simple but crucial ways to get the most out of your AI in litigation is to know what the different tools in your inventory do and prepare your datasets accordingly.
Doing so maximises the speed and accuracy of AI-driven reviews, as you'll be playing to the strengths of your available tools. Plus, you'll minimise the chance of sticking points or errors when using your tools.
