Dear Demythigator: Will using AI/ML replace my entire review team?
Demythigator’s response:
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are designed to augment what review teams can do, not replace them entirely. Review is still required in AI/ML workflows, but is focused on data more likely to be relevant so that less time is spent reviewing non-relevant information. AI/ML can help the review team find relevant data faster by having the review team review the most relevant data first, as compared to a traditional linear review. AI/ML can often even help the review team find potentially relevant data with more speed than custodial, date, or keyword-based prioritizations that are sometimes employed to expedite linear review. By design, AI/ML typically reduces (sometimes quite considerably) the amount of time the review team spends reviewing non-relevant data. This allows the review team to re-allocate review resources to higher value-added tasks such as case strategy or further fact development or additional types of investigatory review.
