The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

Why?

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

because you only really get that from a bunch of experience right and the experience is usually something that will be very difficult to distill into the models right so an example of this is when you're doing a large m a a lot of the very good like top m a attorneys what they are good at is they actually know personally all the other folks like all the players

The Knowledge Project

And so what they're ending up becoming is actually like deal advisors of, I know that this is actually what they want.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

I know that this is what they're going to push back against, etc.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

And I think it's going to be very difficult for the models to get that data over time.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

My guess is we're going to get to a stage where agents are running a very large portion of this and humans get really good at reviewing the outputs of agents and understanding where they might've made a mistake.

This is also what senior lawyers are really good at already.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

I don't know if law firms are necessarily going to get smaller because there's actually a world in which because AI allows you to institutionalize your knowledge faster and work across a lot of different projects faster, you might actually be able to scale faster as a law firm than you used to be able to in the in the past.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

But you will need less people per project, right?

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

But the other thing, as long as you have less people per project,

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

you might have like way more projects.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

So I'll give you a really good example of this, or like a very simple one.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

We are going to have a bunch of regulations about AI use, for sure.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

There's no universe in which we aren't gonna end up there, right?

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

In the same way we have a lot of audit restrictions on banks, right?

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

For like, when you make a trade, you have to put X, Y, Z down.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

That's gonna happen for models, for sure, right?

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

who's going to be in charge of that monitoring that lawyers right the legal department and so there is an area where i think like there's going to be a massive expansion of legal work think about like a data room what a data room is going to have in 10 years if you've been using ai to create all the contracts

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

it's going to be 20 times larger, right?

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

50 times larger.
