Litigation analytics\, legal research\, practice management platforms\, and contracting are all areas that are being transformed by AI technology . Contracts and contract management\, in particular\, are untapped sources of data that\, in theory\, are obvious places for AI enabled tools to add immediate value. But in practice\, there are a number of challenges in ad option\, design\, and implementation of these tools that are hindering the progress of AI’s transformation of contracting. Much of my current resear ch examines barriers to adoption of AI technology and how use of AI contra cting software changes contracting dynamics (i.e.\, negotiation and drafti ng). I am looking forward to an extensive discussion on AI and contracting and\, if time permits\, I hope to discuss ideas that I have been working on recently related to\, first\, how the diverse incentive structures of l aw practice impact the development of technology and\, second\, interventi ons aimed at increasing adoption of AI technology in the legal context.\n \nAbout the speaker\n\nBeverly Rich is a PhD candidate in Strategy at USC Marshall School of Business.
