Legal & Professional Services
Professional judgement depends on knowing exactly which sources were relied on.
Professional firms could establish persistent identity and continuity for:
precedents and templates
advice and opinions
contracts and clause libraries
research notes and authorities
client work product
AI-assisted drafts and analysis
Instead of re-checking where a source came from each time, firms can resolve its identity and inspect its history.
Next: Public SectorAI is only as accountable as the knowledge behind it.
When the sources, rights and history of knowledge used in AI workflows can be traced, people have better evidence for oversight, review and change management.
As AI assists with drafting and research, provenance supports source review and rights checks on the knowledge used.
Review the sources behind AI-assisted drafts and analysis.
Check authorship, rights and permitted reuse of precedent material.
Keep a clear history as advice and templates are revised.
Provenance does not guarantee that an AI output is accurate or unbiased, and it applies to knowledge registered with AuthOrigin. It cannot recover the origins of data that was never recorded.
