What happened
AT&T is partnering with OpenAI to build a "knowledge layer" that connects the company's accumulated legal expertise to incoming legal work. This initiative builds on AT&T's LegalEdge program, which focuses on applying AI to major legal matters. The system is planned to include an intake system that uses natural language to classify and prioritize requests and connect them to relevant precedent and past work.
