If AI can draft your contracts, flag your redlines, and build your bundles…Who’s responsible when it gets it wrong?In our latest Legally Speaking Podcast™ LinkedIn Live, proudly sponsored by Clio, I sat down with Austin Brittenham, lawyer, founder, and CEO of 2nd Chair — the minds behind David AI, the “AI with a conscience” reshaping how small firms, solo lawyers, and students get legal work done.🎙 Topic: AI With a Conscience — Can Legal Tech Stay Ethical as It Scales?This wasn’t another AI hype session. It was a deep dive into:♦️ What happens when AI gets the law wrong — and how David AI avoids hallucination with built-in verification♦️ Why they designed for solo attorneys first — not BigLaw♦️ How firms can self-regulate today — without waiting for the SRA to catch up♦️ The future of legal education and whether AI should be a core subject♦️ Mental health, burnout, and building AI that supports people, not just processes💡 “Verification over velocity.” That was Austin’s core message — and it’s one every legal professional needs to hear.📌 Connect with Austin Brittenham: https://www.linkedin.com/in/abrittenham
