Is it time to start preparing for the robot invasion?
Dentons, via its subsidiary NextLaw Labs, announced a joint venture this month with a Toronto-based startup that is developing a new artificially intelligent legal assistant, called ROSS, that can research case law and answer legal questions posed in plain English.
ROSS Intelligence Inc.'s 26-year-old CEO, University of Saskatchewan law grad Andrew Arruda, says that he and a few tech-savvy friends saw an opportunity to apply the growing power of AI to legal research, an area that he says costs lawyers and firms about $8.4 billion annually in the U.S.
