Sir Geoffrey Vos KC, the Master of the Rolls, spoke at a series of LawtechUK events on GenAI called the ‘Roadmap to 2030.’ He said that very soon, professionals and others might be legally responsible for not using Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI). He also suggested that GenAI would more likely be utilised directly by consumers, not just by lawyers who advise them. In the future, there could be legal liability for failing to use AI to protect the interests of the people served. Sir Geoffrey believes that this day is undoubtedly coming soon. However, he emphasised the importance of having old-fashioned legal advice available for vulnerable people who cannot go online, along with legal aid to support them.
