Ladies, don't ever worry about AI taking over your work. Its completely useless - at least the AI software I use. What a god damned waste. It actually costs the firm time and money to play with a lousy program that doesn't work. Especially when you are given bad if ANY instructions with what to do and how to handle the task at hand. We don't read minds.

Funny you mentioned this! I was just completing a CLE today that talked about how screwy AI results can be, and how you should approach it with a skeptical--and human!--eye.

Hello,
You should not use God’s name in vain. Also, not all paralegals are women. There are men who are paralegals as well.

Good one.

What program? Is it luminance? My company uses it and it has some benefits but I have to agree. The word I would use to describe the AI features is “Clunky!”

What AI software does your firm use?

It isn't only about AI software. It also has to do with working with project managers who do not provide a full description what needs to be done to achieve the end result. It happens with each project, each time and we are all left scratching heads, guessing on what they want us to do AND how to do it. We are left going through records that we have already reviewed on cases we have already reviewed! Complete waste of time because project managers didn't set up the SOP correct the FIRST time. Basically, we are fixing their errors and forced to go back to re-review.
