Legal Technology Literacy and Leadership

Today’s law students are entering a profession being reshaped by AI, making technology literacy more important than ever. What does it mean to build a legal career and professional identity in this rapidly evolving landscape? Dennis Kennedy’s students have been exploring that very question in one of his most recent classes, and he joins Tom to share what they’ve learned. Together, they examine the realities facing today’s law students and new associates, discuss why technological fluency is becoming an essential legal skill, and highlight the opportunities young lawyers have to emerge as technology leaders within their firms and the broader profession. As always, stay tuned for the parting shots—that one tip, website, or observation you can use the second the podcast ends. Have a technology question for Dennis and Tom?
