Victor Lazarte, a general partner at Benchmark, critiques the optimistic narrative surrounding AI, asserting that it is fully displacing workers instead of merely augmenting their roles. He highlights that lawyers and recruiters should be particularly concerned about AI's advancements, suggesting that law school graduates must consider what tasks will remain for humans in the near future. As AI technology evolves, startups are increasingly automating hiring processes, indicating a significant shift in the traditional roles of these professions. Lazarte's remarks underscore the need for legal practitioners to adapt to artificial intelligence for continued success.
"Big companies talk about, like, 'AI isn't replacing people, it's augmenting them.' This is bullshit. It's fully replacing people," he added.
"There's not going to be that many things that law school students could do three years from now that AI could not."
"Lawyers need to wake up. Learning to use artificial intelligence was imperative for their success," said Todd Itami, an attorney.
AI models will soon be better than people at interviewing candidates - and far more efficient than companies' messy, manual hiring processes.
