AI isn’t coming for the legal profession. It’s already changing it. The AI Sidebar cuts through the noise around legal AI and legal technology. Hosted by Phillip Vaden, each episode explores how lawyers and litigation teams are using artificial intelligence in legal research, drafting, discovery, and practice management through honest conversations, real workflows, and practical takeaways you can apply immediately. Understand what AI actually means for legal practice and navigate the future of law with clarity and confidence, not hype. Presented by Infotrack.InfoTrack US Inc.

  • AI, the Unauthorized Practice of Law, and the Future of Legal Fees

    AI, the Unauthorized Practice of Law, and the Future of Legal Fees
    Oct 13 2026
    The line between legal information and legal advice is disappearing, and AI is the reason. Damien Riehl, a lawyer and technologist at Clio who chairs the Minnesota State Bar Association’s AI Committee, explains why unauthorized practice of law concerns look different in the age of ChatGPT and shares three ways legal aid providers can stay on the right side of the line: sticking to legal information, using empathy, and offering statistics. He explains why transactional lawyers have embraced AI faster than litigators, why the more than 1,000 cases involving hallucinated citations are really a bad lawyering problem, and why a tool grounded in current case law can hallucinate less than a junior associate. Riehl also looks at how firms like Kirkland are trying to keep institutional knowledge from walking out the door with lateral hires, why Jevons paradox suggests cheaper legal work will create more of it, and how his own neighbor dispute over a fence showed what an experienced litigator still brings that AI cannot. He predicts flat fees and subscriptions will take a much larger share of legal billing, points to AAA’s bot arbitration as a glimpse of where access to justice could go for the 92% of legal needs that go unmet, and closes by rejecting the optimist versus pessimist framing in favor of deciding what kind of future lawyers want to build.

  • Why Off-the-Shelf AI Tools Aren't Enough for Litigation Teams — Live from ILTACON 2026

    Why Off-the-Shelf AI Tools Aren't Enough for Litigation Teams — Live from ILTACON 2026
    Oct 6 2026
    Recorded at Concorda's booth in Startup Alley at ILTACON, this conversation with founders Sam Oh and Ke Ma digs into the gap they saw in legal AI tools built mostly for transactional work while litigation teams were left without platforms that understood local court rules, judges' standing orders, and the formatting requirements tied to filing and service. Oh and Ma, both licensed attorneys, walk through how they built out that database starting with PACER and federal courts before expanding state by state to national coverage, and why their approach to firm adoption leans on embedding directly with attorneys and mapping the technology to a firm's actual workflows rather than dropping in an off-the-shelf tool. The conversation closes with their shared warning about the industry's biggest blind spot: no matter how advanced the models get, hallucination risk never fully disappears, which is why Oh argues that quick, visual source verification matters more than trusting a tool at face value.

  • Firms Are Growing Revenue With AI, Not Just Cutting Hours — Live from ILTACON 2026

    Firms Are Growing Revenue With AI, Not Just Cutting Hours — Live from ILTACON 2026
    Sep 29 2026
    Recorded on the show floor at ILTACON, this conversation with Thomas Bueler-Faudree, founder of August, tackles the question he says he hears most from law firms: does adopting AI mean undercutting your own billable hours. Bueler-Faudree argues that legal work is inelastic, so firms that lower costs with AI tend to win more work rather than less, pointing to case studies of firms doubling revenue and scaling from 100 to 400 lawyers after adopting AI systems. He also breaks down why Australia and the UK have outpaced the US in AI adoption due to their different ownership rules, why long pilot programs with a mix of skeptics and early adopters matter more than rushing a rollout, and why he pushes firms to measure ROI in top-line revenue rather than time saved. The conversation closes with Bueler-Faudree's read on where the market is headed next, including the shift from firms using AI individually to firms restructuring around it at a firm-wide level.
