S2 Episode 4: Can AI Replace Your Lawyer with Scott Newbern

Jessica sits down with data analyst Scott Newbern to discuss the growing trend of people asking AI for legal advice instead of speaking with an attorney, and why that approach can be risky. While AI can be a powerful tool for gathering general information or understanding legal concepts, it cannot evaluate the full context of a unique situation, develop legal strategy, or carry the professional responsibility that comes with legal representation.If you’ve ever wondered whether technology could someday replace lawyers, this episode offers a thoughtful and balanced perspective. The takeaway is simple: AI may be a powerful assistant, but when your freedom, finances, or family are on the line, professional judgment, accountability, and human expertise still matter.
