What Specific Workflow Will AI Support?

Start with the work, not the tool.

AI is a stronger fit when the task is bounded and the source material is known. The output should be reviewable, and a person should remain accountable for the result. That makes uses such as summarization, routing, and first-pass analysis stronger starting points than privilege decisions, final redactions, or production calls.

The point is not to avoid higher-value legal work forever. It is to build AI maturity in workflows where the team can learn safely, document what works, and expand from a stronger foundation.

Before moving forward, define what should improve and how the team will measure it. A use case is only clear when the task, expected outcome, and accountable reviewer are understood.
