Generative AI tools like ChatGPT are increasingly used in legal tasks such as drafting documents, conducting legal research, and automating repetitive workflows.

The report also stresses the importance of developing clear regulations to govern AI’s use in the legal field, ensuring fairness, accountability, and transparency.

The article concludes that while generative AI is revolutionizing legal practices, its success depends on collaboration between technology providers, legal experts, and regulators to address challenges and maximize benefits for both professionals and clients.
