In this episode of the Professor Insight Podcast, we dive into the rapidly evolving intersection of artificial intelligence and the legal profession. Drawing from two powerful resources — Prompt Engineering for Lawyers, a joint publication by Microsoft and the Singapore Academy of Law, and the 2024 Future of Professionals Report by Thomson Reuters — we explore how AI is not just automating tasks but redefining the way legal professionals work, think, and serve their clients.
We break down how AI is being used right now in law firms and legal departments, from contract review and research to drafting and client communication. More importantly, we focus on one emerging superpower every legal professional should pay attention to: prompt engineering. We unpack how lawyers can write better AI prompts to improve outcomes, increase efficiency, and stay compliant with ethical and professional standards. This is practical, applicable knowledge for anyone navigating the shift from traditional practice to AI-powered productivity.
If you work in law, support legal teams, or are simply fascinated by how AI is transforming high-trust professions, this episode is your guide. You’ll walk away with insights into the tools, techniques, and mindset needed to thrive in the AI-enabled future of legal work.
