Some law firms have announced their own proprietary tools in the AI and software space recently — for example, Gunderson Dettmer announced a homegrown generative AI chat app for the firm’s attorneys, Cooley announced Cooley D+O, a software platform for D&O questionnaires, and Orrick recently announced The Observatory, an online platform meant to help you select technology that’s right for your organization.

These are certainly some interesting developments by firms working to lead here, but we still don’t have a great sense for what law firms and in-house legal departments are doing generally to leverage efficiencies from AI or other emerging technologies for legal tasks to stay up to date in this rapidly changing environment. To get some answers, we’ve put together a short, anonymous survey on how in-house teams and law firms are using technologies right now and what policies and oversight of AI they currently have in place. This is different from the many surveys on AI we’ve seen elsewhere focused on who it’s going to put out of a job or what industries it’s going to revolutionize. We hope this will give you current, practical & actionable insight. Please take a moment to participate!

If you are leading your team’s efforts to efficiently, safely & legally leverage AI, that would make a great podcast topic, and we’d love to hear about it.
