Technology isn't the hard part anymore; it’s keeping up with it. In this episode, IST's Jordan McQuown, CIO and CISO, sits down with host Brad Burgess to unpack the fast-moving world of AI in legal technology, and why the pace of change has made a dedicated technology partner more valuable than ever.
Jordan walks through the tools already reshaping how legal teams work, image recognition that turns thousands of photos into a searchable population, text analysis that summarizes a 38-page document into a single paragraph, translation across roughly 200 languages, and entity and PII detection that accelerates breach response when notification deadlines are shrinking. But the throughline is bigger than any one tool: with new AI models arriving every few months and regulations tightening constantly, the smartest organizations aren't trying to master it all in-house.
They're partnering with experts who make it their job to stay current, keep data secure, and adopt new capabilities the right way, starting small, proving value, and building trust. It's a candid, jargon-free look at where the technology is going, what it can and can't do today, and why the right partner is the one who keeps up so you don't have to.
