Revolutionizing Legal Direction: Business Tools, Task Automation, and Collaboration
Emilie Progin, Corporate Lawyer (Altarea), intervened as part of the roundtable "The Impact of AI for Lawyers in 2024: Technology, Skills, Use Cases".
We are a small legal department composed of about ten people that began the digitization process just four years ago. We started from nearly an "all-paper" system, and even though we have IT tools, we still have many steps to take.
Towards a Legal Revolution: Evolution of Business Tools and Emergence of Generative AI
Business tools have already given us access to a certain form of artificial intelligence, but we haven't yet reached generative AI in everyday use. However, it is a real topic of reflection and interest within our department and the group. Our IT department has, in fact, deployed Copilot, the daily AI assistant, at the beginning of 2024.
I am convinced that we have interesting tools. We are experiencing a kind of revolution; before, we were digging with a pickaxe, now we have a jackhammer, and it's somewhat the same for the legal department. We used to do everything by hand, we transitioned to tools that improve things, and those of tomorrow will be even more efficient.
Maximizing Efficiency: Task Automation with GaLexy
Tools will relieve us of somewhat tedious daily tasks like subsidiary management or approval of accounts, allowing us to focus on much more interesting things.
This is already happening, as we have already automated some tasks using GaLexy, but I think we will go even further tomorrow. Spending even less time. We have a lot of convincing work, I believe, to do at the team level, with lawyers, who are sometimes a bit resistant to these topics.
Towards a Collaborative Community: Implementation Strategy and Future Vision
In terms of implementation, we aim to establish an eco-CLM, starting with a small group of company contracts, and proceeding in successive stages to see how it works, involve teams, operations, and open access to everyone. The goal is to create a large community that works together.
I am quite enthusiastic about what is happening right now. We are experiencing a new era, we need to pay attention to all these issues, and ensure we don't miss the boat.

AI and Legal Transformation at La Poste: Experiences, Initiatives, and Collaboration

Aurelie Morin's Presentation, Legal Operations Manager (La Poste Group), as part of the panel discussion "The Impact of AI on Lawyers in 2024: Technology, Skills, Use Cases."
Digitalization and the use of generative AI are part of the objectives of the Legal Department's strategy at La Poste Group.
First Steps Towards AI: Training and Legal Collaboration at La PosteEven before ChatGPT became the focus of daily conversations, we had established a multidisciplinary working group covering various areas of law, consisting of 10 lawyers, to test it.
In the meantime, we have implemented some training sessions and conducted awareness-raising actions to engage the lawyers. We are 140 within La Poste's legal department, and we have created legal cafes to share with the Caisse des Dépôts group. In total, we are 800 lawyers to exchange ideas, define what we are talking about AI, generative AI, extractive AI, and what they correspond to. But also, to handle AI and test it.
Implementing AI in the Legal Landscape: Experiences and Reflections at La PosteBeyond our ongoing reflection on the impacts of AI and its use in our profession, we are also involved at a global level. One of our legal directors worked with all of La Poste's departments to draft a memo on data protection, advising all postal workers not to share any personal or company data when using ChatGPT. A group of lawyers is currently working on use cases. As a Legal Ops manager, I collaborate with our DATA/AI division and the Transformation Department to monitor the evolution of our environment in light of Generative AI.
