Sometimes the simplest questions are the best ones. What is legal AI? Central to the second quarter of #thelawoftech podcast Season 3, we wanted to set the scene for our discussion starting from the fundamentals. In this episode entitled: “What is Legal AI? An educational perspective on the ‘what’ behind AI in law” we interviewed one of the most inspiring personalities in the field: Uwais Iqbal, founder at Simplexico. Uwais’ story and his entrepreneurial journey with AI is an inspiring one. Something that completely caught our attention was his unique capacity to explain complex concepts in the most simple and understandable way. He puts accessible information and content sharing for educational purposes at the center of his mission. That is why we feel so much aligned with his mission at Simplexico. Amongst different topics, we touched upon the role of law firms in legal AI and how they can leverage open-source LLMs for internal use cases. Are you interested to read more about this?
