The AI Mirage in Legal: Why Nothing Has Actually Changed
Candid analysis of why AI adoption in legal hasn’t reduced cost, risk, or accountability. Explores the gap between visible AI use and real impact—and why outcomes change only when operating models, incentives and ownership evolve.
Featuring Rico Burnett and Justin Le Sar March 25, 2026
In this episode, Rico Burnett is joined by Justin Le Sar for a candid and thought‑provoking conversation about the reality behind AI in the legal industry. Together, they unpack what’s actually changed, what hasn’t, and why so much of today’s legal AI feels more like a mirage than a transformation.
From cost, risk, and quality, to trust, operating models, and the future role of legal professionals, this discussion challenges some of the most common assumptions shaping the AI narrative in legal today.
