Dazza Greenwood, a technologist turned lawyer, discusses the transformative potential of generative AI, particularly in the legal field. Greenwood’s background includes public sector work, law practice focused on technology, and current work assisting companies and governments with technology rollouts, especially where legal or regulatory constraints exist. He also maintains a research affiliation with MIT, focusing on the “over the horizon” implications of technology. Greenwood expresses excitement about the current generation of AI, emphasizing its ability to handle nuanced, qualitative tasks previously beyond technological reach. For Greenwood, generative AI bridges his dual interests in technology and law.
Greenwood highlights the shift from traditional AI to generative AI, which he believes is revolutionizing how computers perform cognitive tasks. He draws parallels between how humans acquire language and how LLMs comprehend unstructured data. He also discusses the emergence of “agentic AI,” where AI is wrapped in applications to perform complex tasks, and how it can revolutionize law firms. Greenwood believes firms that effectively integrate these multi-agent systems will gain significant advantages in cost structure, quality, and speed, ultimately changing the landscape of legal services. He encourages lawyers to experiment with AI tools and explore new business models to remain competitive in this evolving field.
