Episode 186: Legal professional responsibility in the digital age – critical, outdated or redundant?

What is the new and emerging role of regulatory authorities in a GenAI world? Who should be regulated (lawyers and paralegals)? Should the provision of legal services/products/solutions remain a duopoly? Should tech/AI competency be mandated? What does legal professional responsibility mean in contemporary legal practice?

  • Matthew Dunn, General Manager – Advocacy, Guidance and Governance, Queensland Law Society

  • Jeannie Paterson, Professor of Law, University of Melbourne and Co-Director, Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Digital Ethics (CAIDE), University of Melbourne
