In this no frills TalkingTech podcast, Legal IT Insider’s editor Caroline Hill chats with Olly Bethell, chief technology officer at Travers Smith, about what GenAI really means for law firms and the opportunities it brings.
Olly is responsible for all things technology at Travers. Previously he held a range of senior roles at Freshfields including latterly global head of strategy and architecture, and interim CTO.
He discusses what Travers’ tech stack looks like now and what its plans are; their approach to buy or build; and what GenAI means for legal tech when you step away from the headlines.
We discuss the fact that AI will create more work and that some of the perceptions about its impact on the workforce may be incorrect. And we look at orchestration and governance: with the speed of tech development outpacing organisation’s ability to digest it in a mature way, how can firms make sure that they remain in control but moving fast enough?
Make sure you listen here for a conversation with Olly, who has long been recognised as one of the most cutting-edge CTOs in the legal technology sector.
