ISSUE IN BRIEF

Briefing May18 Automation supplement,coverIn this latest special spotlight supplement, Briefing navigates the apparent ‘automation gap’ within legal business for more insight into this technology’s efficiency gains and obstacles to implementation.

Rarely does a month now pass without a new report predicting AI-powered transformation of the future workplace. Or – the flip side – warning that without robust oversight an increasingly robotic world poses societal risks ranging form facilitating cybercriminals, to job losses, or even the classic cautionary tale of machines that eventually refuse to obey their trainers.
