Bridging the Law and AI— Considerations for Practice and Policy

In May, Guerin Lee Green joined Dr. Gareth Middleton, to teach a Continuing Legal Education (CLE) session to the Colorado Faculty of Federal Advocates, a group of attorneys and judges working in Federal Court System. For Green, it was an opportunity to lecture about AI and some of its implications to a non-technical audience, one that might have an outsize role in policy creation and litigation affecting the future course of the technology.

“In reviewing multiple filings in the nascent AI lawsuits over Generative AI and talking with practitioners, I was struck at how deep misconceptions about the technology went,” says Green. Those misunderstandings could not only hamstring the practice of law but hurt consumers, business, even national security. “We need a new form of technological literacy, one that goes beyond hot takes and tech bros. And given the stakes, that literacy must give policy and citizens the tools such that the future is not solely determined by a handful of tech giants.”

Beyond that, for attorneys and law firms trying to make fundamental decisions about the adoption of AI in the practice of law, the pace of change is dizzying and carries substantial risk. Driving concern is the rapid proliferation of Retrieval Augmented Generation and custom AI models, both ways to put critical path legal assets into the AI gristmill. “The Stanford paper by Varun Magesh was a stunning wake up call. Both Lexis Nexis and Thompson Reuter’s AI Legal tools were found to hallucinate 17% of the time. At a minimum. While RAG’s are the current way forward for domain-specific data, guardrails have to be in place,” Green emphasized. “It is going to vary by use-case, but legal decision-makers need a strategic framework in place, and that requires a deeper understanding of the whole tech stack, and where the next innovations are coming from. It won’t be a wholly GPT-centric implementation”

“Guerin is an AI expert with the insights and ability to creatively apply real-world experience to what otherwise is very obscure and complex,” says Andrew S. Lillie, Partner at Denver’s Holland and Hart. “He was able to give lawyers who otherwise fear AI the ability to approach it with an open mind, with curiosity, and with an ability to think about it as a positive force in their professional lives.”

Green has been using AI and machine-learning tools for more than a half-decade, including some of the first GPT implementations. It’s an experience that has built a unique set of problem-solving chops. “The last six months have been eye-opening. I feel like we have a new mission to share learnings and a strategic compass. We are leaning into new vectors of execution and advising.”
