Arow Summary
Over the past ~45 days, attitudes in the legal industry have shifted from viewing AI as mainly a concern for tech lawyers or big-law enterprise practices to recognizing it as an immediate, everyday risk and competency requirement. A key trigger is the realization that clients may paste sensitive legal notes into ChatGPT, potentially waiving attorney-client privilege. As a result, lawyers now need baseline AI literacy to properly advise clients and protect confidentiality while practicing law.
