Legal AI is inevitable, so the only real question is what you do about it. Cat Casey opened Lexpo with a keynote called The Human Edge, and here she explains why the lawyers who use AI will replace the ones who don't.
She calls legal AI a tsunami. You cannot chop it one drop of water at a time, and the wave keeps coming. But that does not hand the win to the robot lawyer. Casey argues the opposite: your legal expertise plus the tools beats AI on its own, and it beats a lawyer working without AI.
We get into the deepfake defence and the liar's dividend, why we might need more lawyers rather than fewer, what happens to juniors who used to learn the craft on doc review, and why not understanding legal AI could soon count as malpractice.
Cat Casey is a legal AI futurist who has been working on this for almost twenty years.
