We’ve just returned from the Clio Cloud Conference, held this year in Austin, Texas, where, in what has become an annual tradition, LawNext host Bob Ambrogi sat down with Clio founder and CEO Jack Newton for a live interview.  At the conference, Clio launched Clio Duo, the generative AI legal assistant integrated into Clio’s flagship product, Clio Manage. In this interview, Newton discusses what Duo does and why he believes generative AI is a game-changer for lawyers, more significant even than lawyers’ move to the cloud a decade ago, but with parallels to that transition.  Newton also talks about findings from Clio’s just-released Legal Trends Report on lawyers’ adoption of AI and the concerns about AI that are still holding some lawyers back. In a broad-ranging conversation, Newton also shares his thoughts on the law practice management landscape, Clio’s expansion into the mid-firm market, and the greater integration of fintech applications in legal.    Thank You To Our Sponsors This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.
