| 3/23/26 |  How AI in legal supervision is changing lawyer training | Artificial intelligence is reshaping how junior lawyers develop core legal skills and how they are supervised and mentored.In this episode, Allens’ Lisa Kozaris and Caitlin Dagher share how AI in legal supervision has minimised the grunt work, created space for higher value thinking and changed the dynamics of the mentorship between senior and junior lawyers.Tune in to hear some real-life examples from inside one of Australia’s largest law firms, including programs to improve digital literacy, and why open conversations about AI matter for building confidence and good judgment.The episode also offers practical advice about how firms can support experimentation, set clear boundaries and recognise the digital strengths junior lawyers bring to legal practice. This is essential listening for practices big and small developing the next generation of lawyers in a rapidly changing profession.Guest: Lisa Kozaris, Chief Innovation and Legal Solutions Officer at Allens www.linkedin.com/in/lisakozaris/Caitlin Dagher, Associate in Disputes and Investigations at Allens and a recent graduate www.linkedin.com/in/caitlin-dagher-15450b138/Host:Karen Finch, Head of Legal Policy and Innovation, Law Institute of Victoriakfinch@liv.asn.au | www.linkedin.com/in/karen-finchEpisode OverviewThis episode explores how AI is reshaping legal supervision, training and young lawyer development. Lisa Kozaris, Chief Innovation and Legal Solutions Officer at Allens, and Caitlin Dagher, Associate in Disputes & Investigations, share insights on how the profession is shifting as traditional manual tasks that once defined early legal careers are increasingly automated.Despite profound technological shifts brought about by legal artificial intelligence technology, foundational legal skills – such as critical thinking, legal analysis and strategic reasoning – remain irreplaceable. Rather than diminishing these abilities, AI tools help accelerate the early, manual stages of legal work, allowing juniors to focus on high-value tasks.Allens has prioritised digital learning for lawyers, integrating new ways of working into its core legal training programs and adopting both general purpose and legal-specific AI tools into its practice. As the use of technology becomes more integrated into its practice, the importance of open, transparent conversations about mentoring and AI use become increasingly more important.The benefits flow both ways, and firms can reap huge benefits from today’s junior lawyers status as digital natives who are eager to test out the latest AI tools and confident in applying technology in the workplace in new and interesting ways.Topics & Timestamps: [00:20] Intro and guest welcome[02:02] How young lawyers’ skill development has changed with AI[05:20] The key to using AI well in a practice[08:03] How AI affects a mentor relationship[10:57] What AI tools and programs Allens has implemented[12:29] How senior lawyers can ensure AI skill development in juniors[14:48] Valuing junior lawyer digital skill sets[18:30] AI skill building compared to billable workKey Takeaways:AI is changing how junior lawyers learn, but not what they learn, with critical thinking skills still at the core of their development.Including AI in mentorship conversations can make its use more transparent, collaborative and effective.Digital literacy is now a fundamental legal skill, and firms should be encouraged to embed AI training into their practice for lawyers at all levels.Learning by doing is the most effective way to develop AI capabilities.Junior lawyers often bring fresh AI insight and capabilities, which senior lawyers could benefit from embracing.Resources & Links:LIV Artificial Intelligence Hub – essential and up-to-date AI resources for Victorian practitionersEthical and Responsible Use of Artificial Intelligence – LIV AI Ethics Guidelineswww.allens.com.auwww.allens.com.au/insights-news/explore/2025/the-allens-ai-australian-law-benchmark-2025/“Supervising AI” – LIJ article by the Legal Practitioner’s Liability Committee“AI and democracy” – LIJ article by The Honourable Justice Melissa PerryCentre for AI and Digital Ethics (CIADE)For the latest insights on Victorian legal developments and to hear directly from leading voices in the profession, subscribe to Cross-Examined on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or visit the Law Institute of Victoria website.Follow us on LinkedIn for legal insights and episode updates.Enjoyed the episode?

| 3/16/26 |  AI and the Legal System: Bias, transparency and ethics | This episode examines how artificial intelligence is reshaping legal practice and the broader justice system. University of Melbourne Professor Jeannie Marie Paterson explores both the promise and the pitfalls – highlighting how AI can boost efficiency gains while raising critical questions about governance, transparency and the need for sustained human oversight. Drawing on real-word failures, she explains how opaque systems can embed bias and produce hallucinations that undermine legal ethics. The conversation also considers how regulation, professional responsibility and improved AI design can ethically enhance the legal system.Guest: Jeannie Marie Paterson, Professor of Consumer Protection and Technology Law at the University of Melbourne and a Fellow of the Australian Academy of LawCo-founding Director of the Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Digital Ethics (CAIDE)https://law.unimelb.edu.au/about/staff/jeannie-paterson | https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeannie-marie-paterson-225b4a33Host:Karen Finch, Head of Legal Policy and Innovation, Law Institute of Victoriakfinch@liv.asn.au | www.linkedin.com/in/karen-finchEpisode OverviewThis episode explores how artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping legal practice and the broader justice system. University of Melbourne Law Professor Jeannie Marie Paterson discusses both the promise and the pitfalls of AI, highlighting efficiency gains in tasks like document review and research, while stressing the need for strong governance, transparency and ongoing human oversight.The conversation examines real-world failures such as Robodebt and COMPAS, illustrating how opaque systems can embed bias and undermine legal ethics. Jeannie also addresses the growing issue of AI hallucinations, which can produce convincing but false legal information, reinforcing the importance of rigorous verification by lawyers.The episode considers how regulation, professional responsibility and improved AI design can support more responsible use of technology, as well as whether AI can improve access to justice and ethically enhance the legal system.Topics & Timestamps [00:24] Intro and guest welcome[01:38] How AI is currently helping lawyers[03:42] Benefits and challenges of predictive AI[04:46] Lessons from the Robodebt and COMPAS scandals[07:15] The issue of hallucinations[10:38] The importance of accuracy and transparency[13:14] Regulation challenges[15:14] Can AI improve access to justice?[17:56] What separates lawyers’ skills from AI?[20:30] What the future of AI and the law looks likeKey Takeaways:The opportunities for AI in law are almost unlimited, but most of the profession’s attention is currently on tools that do document and low-level diagnostic work.Predictive AI in law is useful but raises a lot of risk because it can amplify existing historic biases.An algorithm is only as good as the data it is trained on, so lawyers need to be wary of outcomes being hallucinations. They may sound legitimate but have no factual basis.It is challenging to consider regulating AI while the profession is still working out how to use it.AI could assist lawyers to broaden the scope of the services they provide.Whatever the future of AI use in the legal system, it must be used in a way that is ethical, responsible and transparent.Resources & Links:LIV Artificial Intelligence Hub –essential and up-to-date AI resources for Victorian practitionersEthical and Responsible Use of Artificial Intelligence – LIV AI Ethics Guidelines“Supervising AI” – LIJ article by the Legal Practitioner’s Liability Committee“AI and democracy” – LIJ article by The Honourable Justice Melissa PerryCentre for AI and Digital Ethics (CIADE)“Lessons from Robodebt” – LIJ article by Matthew Munro and Nidal SayeghAI Hallucination Cases Database“Pro bono: Simple high tech” – LIJ article on the Justice Connect triage toolFor the latest insights on Victorian legal developments and to hear directly from leading voices in the profession, subscribe to Cross-Examined on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or visit the Law Institute of Victoria website.Follow us on LinkedIn for legal insights and episode updates.Enjoyed the episode?

| 3/1/26 |  Wired for Justice: AI in the Victorian court system | Are “robo-judges” fuelled by artificial intelligence set to decide cases in Victorian courts? Absolutely not, according to The Honourable Richard Niall, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Victoria, but AI technology does present significant opportunities for the judicial system.In this conversation, we delve into how Victorian courts are already using artificial intelligence, including several promising pilot projects, as well as future opportunities for efficiency, staff wellbeing and cost reduction. We also discuss the risks, including hallucinated citations, deepfakes, data privacy and unlicensed legal practice.Guest:The Honourable Chief Justice Richard Niall of the Supreme Court of Victoriawww.supremecourt.vic.gov.auHost:Karen Finch, Head of Legal Policy and Innovation, Law Institute of Victoriakfinch@liv.asn.au | www.linkedin.com/in/karen-finchEpisode Overview:In this episode of Cross-Examined, Chief Justice Richard Niall of the Supreme Court of Victoria discusses the early implementation of AI in the court system in Victoria and how legal technology and court innovation are beginning to align in promising ways.One example of experimental AI use is the pilot program at the Coroner’s Court, which uses tech to summarise large volumes of frequently traumatic statements to speed up investigations and reduce staff exposure to distressing material. Another is the judicial use of AI in Supreme Court’s exploratory work, where AI is used to assist judges with tasks like identifying competing arguments and summarising evidence.The Chief Justice points to other opportunities of technology, including reduction in legal costs and facilitating broader access to justice for the Victorian community.The risks of AI in legal practice are very real and widespread, including hallucinated citations, deepfakes, privacy concerns and unlicensed legal practice. The Chief Justice calls for a measured and careful approach to AI adoption, while also emphasising that AI must only ever augment, never replace, human analysis and judgment in decision making.Topics & Timestamps:[00:24] Intro and guest welcome[02:07] Current level of AI adoption in the Victorian justice system[04:36] AI pilot projects under way in Victorian courts[11:35] Hallucinations, deepfakes and unlicensed legal practice[25:05] The role of the judge in an era of AI[33:54] How AI could influence costs and access to justice[35:44] The future of AI and the lawKey Takeaways:Victoria is taking a careful but optimistic approach to implementing AI in courts and tribunals.AI is already being tested in Victorian courts, including a pilot in the Coroner’s Court that uses AI to summarise case material.The Supreme Court is testing AI on completed cases to help summarise evidence or identify key issues.The dangers of using AI in the legal system include hallucinated case citations, deepfakes, privacy concerns and unlicensed legal practice using AI tools.AI policies must remain technology‑agnostic and flexible, so they don’t become obsolete as AI capabilities rapidly advance.AI must augment, not replace, judicial decision making.Resources & Links:LIV Artificial Intelligence Hub – essential and up-to-date AI resources for Victorian practitionersThe Supreme Court of VictoriaEthical and Responsible Use of Artificial Intelligence – LIV AI Ethics GuidelinesArtificial Intelligence in Victoria’s Courts and Tribunal – Report from the VLRCTechnology at the Court | Coroners Court of VictoriaArtificial Intelligence (AI) in the Law for Legal Practitioners – The Law Library of Victoria“Supervising AI” – LIJ article by the Legal Practitioner’s Liability Committee“AI and democracy” – LIJ article by The Honourable Justice Melissa PerryFor the latest insights on Victorian legal developments and to hear directly from leading voices in the profession, subscribe to Cross-Examined on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or visit the Law Institute of Victoria website.Follow us on LinkedIn for legal insights and episode updates.Enjoyed the episode?
