    Online Unconferences and Virtual Get-Togethers for Legal Tech
    Jul 12 2024
    Is there a need for the legal tech community together for more informal chats about the latest happenings in the industry? Dennis envisions chat sessions, group Zooms, unconferences, and more, but Tom isn’t so sure those types of get-togethers would be appealing to him. They hash out their thoughts on encouraging conversations and idea sharing in the legal tech community and which collaboration approaches might appeal to a wide range of people. Later, ChatGPT asks a question about whether the era of generative AI has really fully made it into the legal world, and the guys talk about its impacts, or lack thereof, in different aspects of the profession. As always, stay tuned for the parting shots, that one tip, website, or observation that you can use the second the podcast ends. Have a technology question for Dennis and Tom?
