In the coming years, we will witness the emergence of cyber criminals armed with autonomous AI agents capable of conducting sophisticated, scalable attacks that will fundamentally overwhelm our current defensive capabilities, transforming isolated hackers into coordinated digital armies operating at machine speed.
I have been tracking cybersecurity trends as a white hat hacker for the
This is the first article I’m publishing under Deep Legal Consulting. The thought occurred to me earlier this year while teaching my first law school course, Generative AI and the Delivery of Legal Services, and the release of Claude Sonnet 3.7, that the ground had shifted beneath us. The assumptions underpinning, not only the legal
The National Science Foundation Directorate for Technology, Innovation and Partnerships (NSF TIP) announced on August 7, 2025, an investment of nearly $32 million to five teams across the United States through the NSF Use-Inspired Acceleration of Protein Design (NSF USPRD) initiative. NSF states that the initiative “aims to accelerate the translation of artificial intelligence [(AI)]-based
ComputerWorld.com reported that “In the big-spending history of technology, there’s never been a time like this, when so many companies are spending so many hundreds of billions of dollars on a still-to-be proven technology — generative AI.” The August 27, 2025 article entitled “Could Microsoft’s AI billions go up in smoke?” (https://www.computerworld.com/article/4045573/could-microsofts-ai-billions-go-up-in-smoke.html) included
A recent survey by DeepL, an AI translation service, reveals a risk of continued hallucinations and inaccuracies with the use of AI. Spoiler alert: 96% of those surveyed are using AI, 71% are using it without approval of their organization (aka shadow use) mainly to deliver work faster.
Why It Hit Home
The survey
As I continue to play catch up on some of the news announced during ILTACON, the e-discovery company Everlaw made two notable announcements there: The expansion from private to open beta of its AI Deep Dive, a tool that can answer complex questions about large document collections, and its having secured FedRAMP certification for its
Who are Gen Z lawyers?
Gen Z attorneys are typically aged 25 to 28 as they enter the legal profession, representing the oldest members of a generation born between 1997 and 2012. As digital natives who grew up with smartphones, social media, and instant access to information, they think, learn, and work differently than previous
In February 2024, I wrote here about the launch of Bench IQ, a company that is using generative AI to provide comprehensive insights into the decision-making patterns of judges — based not just on their written rulings, but also their rulings from the bench and other data. At the time, the company had just closed a
Perhaps before we rush to let an agent book our travel arrangements, we should take a moment to consider what might happen to our payment information if the agent were to allow it to fall into the hands of a scammer. Because, apparently, they are susceptible to the same fakes that we are.
