Bloomberg Law published guidance on building AI governance frameworks.
The Story
Their focus is on reducing risk for companies adopting artificial intelligence tools.
Why It Matters
The EU AI Act is coming. For law firms, this means every AI tool, from research to client intake, needs a clear governance framework. Sending client data to US servers without proper oversight creates unacceptable GDPR and professional liability risks. You must know who accesses what, how data is used, and who is accountable.
What To Do About It
Before buying new AI tools, check your existing Microsoft 365 licenses. Most firms already pay for Copilot and aren't using it. Start by evaluating how your firm can deploy Copilot securely within a local-first, governed framework.
