The Open-Source Disruptor: Will Chen
About this lesson
Will Chen left a Latham & Watkins associate role to follow his interest in code, and ended up building Mike OSS, an open source tool that does much of what firms pay millions for. In this episode he tells Tom Martin how a glance at his friends' screens convinced him that premium legal AI was far simpler than advertised, why he chose to open source it, and how the launch drew millions of impressions and a sharply divided response from lawyers and engineers alike. They explore static versus active software, the truth about forward deployed engineers, and where the industry is heading. A candid look at disruption, credibility, and what becomes possible when legal AI stops being gatekept. Explore more at www.lawdroidmanifesto.com This is a public episode.
