AI is not a strategy. Sure, it’s a powerful tool but still, only one piece of the puzzle.

In this episode of Between the Briefs by Steno, Adrian Cea and Joe Stephens sit down with John Koss, Chief Innovation and AI Officer at Mintz, for a practical conversation on legal AI, innovation strategy, knowledge management, law firm data, legal education, vendor relationships and what it actually takes to make new technology useful inside a law firm.

 

The big takeaway: AI strategy is not about panic-buying tools. It is about knowing your problems, choosing your path, building the workflow, and bringing people with you.
