# What impact will AI have on the legal landscape, and how can I prepare?

AI is likely to automate or accelerate some routine legal tasks, including research, document review and drafting. The stronger long-term skills will be legal reasoning, judgement, client communication, negotiation, fact analysis and the ability to use technology responsibly. Law students should learn to work with AI critically rather than compete with it on tasks it can automate.
