What is ambient AI, and why does it matter to lawyers, law firms, and legal marketing and business development professionals?

In this episode of Legal Marketing Minutes, I define ambient AI in clear terms and explain how it’s quietly showing up in tools professionals already use. You’ll hear a real-world example from another profession that illustrates the potential for this technology, and I’ll walk you through what this shift means for your work in legal.

We’ll also discuss OpenAI’s collaboration with renowned iPhone designer Jony Ive, what he and Sam Altman are building behind the scenes, and how it could impact the way we interact with AI in the future.

Topics covered include what ambient AI is, where it’s showing up in the legal profession, why it matters, and what ethical questions and compliance considerations law firms need to keep in mind.

Ambient AI isn’t just coming. It’s already here. The question is whether your firm is ready.

Women and Artificial Intelligence

Recently, I had the opportunity to spend a day with approximately 150 to 200 wonderfully smart people who care very much about leading, teaching, supporting, and being a part of the important conversations that are and will be taking place around artificial intelligence.

Professor Cat Moon of Vanderbilt Law School recently organized the Women+AI Summit in Nashville at the law school for the purpose of helping attendees learn, network, and secure a seat at the AI table, which many publications think is starting out as a male-dominated career.

Let's discuss.
