Understanding Legal Documents Using AI

Did you know that companies can manage their legal documents using NLP and AI?
So imagine that you have all kinds of PDFs docs and some of them may have been scanned, so after that, you need to understand the scan itself, and that takes time as well.
There is a technology called Optical Character Recognition, OCR and that’s often used to get that data in and turn it into printed documents, basically understandable computer documents.
You now have text, which is a big important piece, but you need to understand the content. Your NLP and AI program are gonna have to do some kind of whizzbang magic to basically understand what’s going on in all of that content.
Most good programs will generate internal metadata about the document or the content itself, it might even go down to the bolded words being there for emphasis and the italicized words being there for another reason.
That can also lead to an adjacent to summarizing, so you might wanna summarize the document so that you don’t have this a hundred-page. The idea is to get the general concept of the whole document.

Let’s cut through the jargon, myths and nebulous world of data, machine learning and AI. Each week we’ll be unpacking topics related to the world of data and AI with the awarding winning founders of 1000ML. Whether you’re in the data world already or looking to learn more about it, this podcast is for you.
