Clients push law firms for discounts as A.I. cuts costs
Original: As A.I. makes law firms more efficient, clients ask: 'Where's my discount?' https:// news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4 9872
Law firms are using artificial intelligence to handle work faster and more cheaply, but corporate clients are now questioning why their legal bills have not dropped accordingly. The debate centers on whether efficiency gains from A.I. should be passed on to clients or kept as higher firm margins, with clients increasingly demanding discounts on billable work that machines now perform.
Why now: A.I. is rapidly reshaping the billable-hour model in legal services, raising questions about who benefits from the efficiency gains.
