But as it makes gains more and more quickly, generative AI raises questions of ethics and job security as well as untapped opportunity.
A March survey found 82% of lawyers thought AI could be applied to the profession, and 51% of them thought it should be applied. However, only 3% of respondents said they were currently using AI in their work.
