Context
AT&T LegalEdge, the company's in-house legal agency, is partnering with OpenAI to develop AI-enabled legal workflows. Artificial Lawyer reported it October 8, quoting Jason Boehmig, OpenAI's GM for the legal industry. Law360 and Telecompaper followed October 9.
AT&T's release calls it a responsible, human-led in-house legal department of the future.
The partners, the date and the OpenAI executive match the sources.
'Hired an agent' is the author's framing. The sources describe a collaboration to design workflows, with the release stressing human-led work.
'The last profession with no code is getting an API' is the author's opinion.
