Sam Hou Fai highlights women’s role in regional growthArtificial intelligence (AI) is one of the fastest-growing trends worldwide. Businesses are now utilizing AI to create more efficient workplaces. It’s no surprise that businesses like Xobee Networks, Sandler Training, Coleman & Horowitt, LLP, and Anchored Web Solutions employ AI to enhance their companies in new ways. AI has also started to impact the legal side, with attorneys using various forms of AI to help with research. Associate Aisha O. Otori and Partner Sherrie M. Flynn of Coleman & Horowitt LLP, a law firm based in Fresno, discussed how AI has touched their practice and their interactions with clients. Flynn, an attorney with Coleman & Horowitt since 2013, said many attorneys distrust AI. When they do use it, it is mainly for research purposes. “It’s just amazing to me that I can start with Google, and I can type in a legal question into Google and it’ll come up with an answer,” Flynn said. “Now, I don’t trust that answer, but at least it gives me some framework to start.” One of the most popular AI programs for attorneys is LexisNexis. LexisNexis is a website for “law firms, corporations, government agencies and academic institutions seeking legal solutions, news and business insights.” Although LexisNexis is a trusted resource, it doesn’t always give Flynn and Otori what they need. “I was doing some research and asked a question in the LexisNexis system, and it came up with an answer and cited a particular act, but it didn’t actually give me the code section,” Flynn said. “I was like, ‘Okay, what code section is that act?’ It turned out I was researching copyright. It was a trademark code section, or vice versa, but it wasn’t applicable to the research I was doing.” Despite a few flaws, LexisNexis is reliable more often than not. “It makes it so much quicker and easier to get the research headed in the right direction,” Flynn said. “We still have to read the cases. We still have to synthesize it and apply it to the facts, but it makes research so much quicker and so much less expensive for our clients than it used to be when we really had to guess where to start or do a lot of fumbling to start.” Otori emphasized the importance of closely examining AI-generated information. “I think the most important thing with us in using AI tools for research is that we have to ensure that whatever information we’re getting out of it is being vetted and making sure we are quoting or citing it correctly, especially in terms of the papers that are submitted to the court,” Otori said. Otori gave an example of a lawyer who entered a case into ChatGPT without vetting the information received. The lawyer submitted the case to the court and got it sent back because some of the cases were non-existent. The lawyer ended up getting sanctioned. “No lawyer wants to be a ChatGPT lawyer, right? I mean, that doesn’t work,” Otori said. “There’s just a lot of use cases for AI, but the main thing as lawyers is to make sure you’re vetting it and you’re analyzing it.” AI is also used to draft patents, communicate with clients, and perform risk analysis. One of the biggest questions surrounding AI is the uncertainty of where it falls when it comes to legal questions such as copyright. ScoreDetect, a copyright protection website, states, “AI systems are not recognized legal entities that can hold rights. However, each image prompt represents a creative composition, requiring human judgment and decision making.” Flynn believes that the law regarding AI copyright isn’t solid and that it needs to be more transparent about what AI can and can’t do. She said that at least eight AI-related laws will go into effect from January 2025 to January 2026. Another concern of Flynn’s is that businesses need to tell employees what information should or shouldn’t be inputted into AI programs. If businesses aren’t cautious, they could lose their trade secrets when putting information into AI programs. “You don’t want your employees dumping information into something like ChatGPT because then someone else can get that information, and you lose the trade secrets of your business, Flynn said. So you need to train employees too and have a policy in place as to what employees can use to make sure they even understand what is confidential information for your business and what’s not.” Parsec Education, a Fresno-based K-12 data analytics company, announced Wednesday Editor's note: On Nov. 15, The Business Journal's news team Mayd Modern Mediterranean, a Mediterranean restaurant in north Fresno, was Kaiser Permanente Northern California announced Monday its health plan has
HUNTINGTON, W.V. (AP) — Marshall has withdrawn from the Independence Bowl after a coaching change resulted in much of its roster jumping into the transfer portal. The Thundering Herd were slated to play Army on Dec. 28 in Shreveport, Louisiana. But the Independence Bowl and Louisiana Tech announced on Saturday that the Bulldogs will take on the 19th-ranked Black Knights instead. Marshall said it pulled out “after falling below the roster minimum that was deemed medically safe.” The Herd (10-3) beat Louisiana-Lafayette 31-3 last weekend to win the Sun Belt Conference Championship for the first time. The program has won seven games in a row in the same season for the first time since 2020. “We apologize for the nature and timing of this announcement and for the turmoil it has brought to bowl season preparations for Army, the Radiance Technologies Independence Bowl, the American Athletic Conference and ESPN,” Sun Belt Commissioner Keith Gill said in a statement. Coach Charles Huff left Marshall for Southern Miss last Sunday, and Tony Gibson, the defensive coordinator at North Carolina State, was announced as his replacement less than an hour later. By Thursday, at least 25 Marshall players had entered the transfer portal. Gibson held a meeting shortly after arriving on campus in Huntington to introduce himself to the team. He followed that up with phone calls, text messages and more meetings Friday and Saturday. “Any time coaches leave to take other jobs, it is emotional,” Gibson said at a news conference Thursday. “And kids that are 18-to-22 years old are going to make emotional decisions instead of just breathing for a day or two.” It's the first bowl for Louisiana Tech (5-7) since 2020. The Bulldogs have won two of their last three games, but they haven't played since a 33-0 victory over Kennesaw State on Nov. 30. “We are excited to accept the opportunity to play in the Radiance Technologies Independence Bowl against a fantastic and storied program as Army,” Louisiana Tech athletic director Ryan Ivey said in a release. “I believe our football program is moving toward positive structure and the opportunity to play in this bowl adds to that momentum. We are looking forward to being in Shreveport for this matchup.” Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season. Sign up here .
