I. The Era of AI is Here Now

The announcement of the U.S. government’s $500 billion “Stargate” project to upgrade America’s AI infrastructure will drive AI adoption across various industries.  Meanwhile, global AI competition, such as the release of DeepSeek R1 from China, is driving rapid advancements in AI Large Language Models (LLMs). These changes directly impact the legal sector, making AI-powered legal tools more powerful and cost-effective.

The U.S. Supreme Court has taken notice. Chief Justice John Roberts acknowledged the AI transformation in his 2023 year-end report, noting that “judicial work—particularly at the trial level—will be significantly affected by AI.”  Additionally, Judge Kevin Newsom of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit advocated for the use of AI – powered large language models as supplementary tools in legal interpretation, highlighting their benefits while also recognizing potential drawbacks.  He emphasized that human judgment will always be necessary in applying the law.

Such recognition from the highest levels of our judiciary underscores the immediacy of AI’s adoption in the US legal system. AI systems can now assist with tasks that once took days or weeks to complete. Document review, legal research, and medical analysis have been transformed. More importantly, AI is enabling lawyers to devote more time to what matters most: strategic thinking, client interaction, and courtroom advocacy.
