How good is your grasp of AI as a law firm leader?

In this special episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, recorded at the Partner Summit 2025, Attune Legal’s principal reflects on the extent to which firm partners and principals are satisfactorily proficient with artificial intelligence (AI) and why improving one’s grasp of new technologies is of paramount importance.

Host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Attune Legal principal Yule Guttenbeil about his frustrations about perceptions that law firm leaders are not properly grasping AI at this point in time, why this might be the case and the motivations of such leaders, how we haven’t yet scratched the surface of what it means to utilise AI at a satisfactory level, and the risks inherent with taking one’s time in developing proficiency.

Guttenbeil also delves into the steps that firm leaders need to be taking right now, the questions to be asked of themselves and their businesses, the need to update terms of engagement with clients to include language around AI use, becoming confident with AI and how many hours to invest daily and weekly to increase proficiency.
