I think it’ll be the opposite, newer lawyers will be looked at as a commodity to hire for AI-use, I imagine in the same way recent grads that learned Westlaw in law school were an invaluable resource for book-based lawyers that were too old to learn. The only downside I see is that AI is going to make a lot of the actual work junior attorneys used to do obsolete or at least less profitable.
