Generative AI project developed in the legal field

Generative AI, a subfield of Artificial Intelligence, has proven increasingly valuable for various business sectors, including the legal field, helping optimize tasks and enhance the productivity of multidisciplinary teams.


According to a study by Bain & Company, around 80% of Brazilian executives consider generative artificial intelligence (AI) a top investment priority in the coming years.


Investing in generative AI is no longer about the future but about the present, with various possibilities to streamline processes, boost productivity, and enhance outcomes.


In this context, Paulo Silvestre de Oliveira Junior, an innovation specialist at Machado Meyer Advogados, a law firm, sought out Dataside—a consultancy specializing in data, AI, and business—to develop a solution based on Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service, Microsoft’s generative AI tool, aimed at improving the workflow of the firm’s staff.


The proprietary solution developed, a type of GPT focused on the firm's specific needs, provides a robust tool to support lawyers in their activities.


Based on Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service technology, Dataside's AI and development experts teamed up with Paulo Silvestre, an innovation specialist for lawyers, to deliver a generative AI solution capable of enhancing the firm's results by increasing efficiency and optimizing operational processes.


The tool can now receive files in various formats, allow for querying these files through questions in a custom-designed chat tailored to the lawyers' needs, and even enables translation and review of documents that would otherwise take many days to read and interpret.


The introduction of this GPT-based solution offers several significant benefits for legal professionals and their teams, including:


Efficiency

Reduces the time spent on manual and repetitive tasks, allowing lawyers to focus on higher-value activities.


Accuracy

GPT’s ability to quickly and accurately analyze large volumes of data helps avoid human errors and omissions.


Cost Savings

By automating processes and increasing efficiency, this solution can reduce operational costs for law firms and legal departments.


Ethics and responsibility still matter


While AI can be a powerful tool, it does not replace human judgment and legal expertise. Lawyers must use these solutions wisely and continue to exercise professional diligence when applying AI-generated insights.


Moreover, ethical concerns related to data privacy and security must also be considered and addressed appropriately to ensure compliance with legal regulations.
