Our guest this episode is Greg Lambert, Chief Knowledge Services Officer at Jackson Walker, co-creator of 3 Geeks and a Law Blog and one half of The Geek in Review podcast, a true OG in the online legal sphere. Some standout points covered:
- The ease of information sharing within an industry as nuanced as the legal industry
- The merits of an emerging technologies committee
- How listening to and understanding the business is the starting point for pinpointing the right solutions to their challenges, and the answer is not always technology!
- How the AI buzz can spark valuable conversations within the business that otherwise would not have come to be
- The importance of delving beyond pouring data into LLMs but thinking about how to make use of that data and extract value
- The tough fact that using Generative AI to handle legal research is one of the hardest things you could do with Generative AI!
Plus a two minute summary of changes in the macro environment over the last 20 years. And - he *only* received two sales emails from vendors pitching tech during the one hour recording of this session!
