ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN THE LEGAL PROFESSION
I. How will the rise of Artificial Intelligence and technology be the end of
capitalism?
Ever since the beginning of civilization, people has been making progress used
for survival, hobby or other things to sustain our needs/wants and to preserve
destructive weapons for example, help people to survive the changes that occurred
in the past. Now, all progress, changes and developments has been made and felt
The rise of technology and artificial intelligence in the world makes it easier for
buildings, machines and other things which helps us much easier to produce and
do our jobs or works efficient. Since technology constitutes great potential for all
the system of society and artificial intelligence is being made or develop today,
markets, firms or businesses are needing them to produce efficient products with
low cost and at the same time, for the works to be done effectively to make or earn
profit. Since firms or businesses need technology for the services in the market,
the need for labor force would be limited and there will be a need for specialization
Technology and Artificial Intelligence can replace workers because they can do
everything as humans can do and they are program to do task with accuracy and
preciseness since information are stored to them. The work on Artificial Intelligence
countries and because of the likeliness that they have to humans. Artificial
Intelligence with the help of technology can do face recognition, language and
speech recognition, etc. The Amazon Go cashier-less for example, is being used
in New York store without the need for workers to secure the store and payments
on the product that is being bought. This is a new progress in the world and other
technology and artificial intelligence and they are powerful and wealthy since most
people, even businesses and firms, have and preferred their products. And since
they dominate the market, capitalism will end because of the progress and
intelligence. Markets will be left out in their means and ends because of the
technologies that they need, replacing labor and relying to machines to produce
efficient goods and services. That is not everything, because every individual
worker would be replaced by machines and will be left with nothing to do but to rely
on it for the jobs. When this happens, there will be no income for the people to
sustain and preserve themselves in every day. And society would not have time to
adapt to the fast changes that will happen so the government will have to make a
solution to the problem that will occur in the future for the people such as taxes.
Although developments and progress happen faster with the rise technologies and
artificial intelligence, the end of capitalism will not happen sooner in the world
because not all state are that develop and advanced. Other countries will be left
behind, but not that far, and the gap with the developed countries will be bigger.
The rise of technology and artificial intelligence will end capitalism to start another
In the current situation of the world where works are more easily to do with
machines, it is always possible to happen that the human labor force will be replace
with the robotic labor force whereas majority of the humans live subsistence level
of income, while the upper class who are those in control of the robots are earning
more which makes them build their empires. If this happens humans will find
themselves in a situation where they have to go out and compete for whatever paid
The rise of artificial intelligence will also be the fall innovation. Innovation will
increasingly be defined by world views of a single person rather than the thinking

same AI‘s but there‘s really nothing new about it. Every industry has a potential to

Artificial intelligence is transforming the legal profession — and that includes legal
ethics. AI and similar cutting-edge technologies raise many complex ethical issues
At the same time, AI also holds out the promise of helping lawyers to meet their
ethical obligations, serve their clients more effectively, and promote access to
justice and the rule of law. What does AI mean for legal ethics, what should lawyers
do to prepare for these changes, and how could AI help improve the legal
profession?
In some ways, nothing has changed. The general ethical duties of lawyers remain
―The ethical issues raised by AI are in many ways not that different from the
ethical issues that lawyers have faced before,ǁ says David Curle, Director of the
Thomson Reuters. ―When using tools in their work, whether AI-powered tools or
any others, lawyers still have the same duties, including duties of supervision and
independent judgment.
And AI is not new to the legal profession, as Dr. Chris Mammen, IP litigation partner
On the one hand, everyone loves to talk about robot lawyers – but on the other
hand, we‘ve been using AI in our practice in a variety of ways for years. Think of
coding in discovery.
In other ways, everything has changed. AI and other innovative technologies are
creating, and will continue to create, novel situations that are not explicitly
addressed in the rules of legal ethics – and that the drafters of these rules never
even imagined.
―We‘re navigating murky ethical areas where the law and rules haven‘t caught up
yet with the technology,ǁ according to ethics and disciplinary lawyer Megan Zavieh.
―We‘re trying to apply rules that were written based on certain ways of practicing
law and now trying to apply them to very different ways of working.ǁ
Take, for example, social media. The original rules governing lawyer advertising
and client communication were drafted well before the age of Facebook, Twitter,
and LinkedIn.
Artificial intelligence is another area where the rules of legal ethics are playing
catch-up with the technology. Here are some of the ethical issues raised by AI.
As lawyers rely more and more on AI and other technologies, and as those tools
become more advanced and more complex, lawyers must be sure that they

generally work.
David Curle of Thomson Reuters puts it well: ―If lawyers are using tools that might
suggest answers to legal questions, they need to understand the capabilities and
limitations of the tools, and they must consider the risks and benefits of those
answers in the context of the specific case they are working on.

an ethical duty to make sure the work has been done competently. And this duty
extends to AI-based tools. One way of analyzing the issue is that the lawyer who
And just as there are some tasks that a lawyer simply cannot delegate to a
