The impact of generative AI on eDiscovery involves numerous potential benefits and challenges, as this blog post from Trustpoint.One discusses.

Their post (The Impact of Generative AI on eDiscovery: Revolutionizing Document Review in Litigation and Internal Investigations, available here) discusses the promise of generative AI to revolutionize eDiscovery, especially in document review for litigation and internal investigations. Over the past two decades, significant advancements in technology and workflows have transformed eDiscovery, yet nothing compares to the potential of generative AI to propel discovery into the future.

Of course, with promise, there are always potential challenges to overcome. For example, the use of generative AI in discovery raises concerns about AI-generated summaries or analyses incorporating privileged information and potentially waiving privilege. AI models trained on privileged communications could inadvertently reveal protected information, leading to arguments that the use of these systems constitutes a waiver of privilege.
