2. 2. How are you currently utilizing this tool, if at all?
3. 3. Has it impacted your work processes or client relationships?
4. 4. How is your firm adapting to the incorporation of AI-powered tools like ChatGPT?
5. 5. Have any firms in India encouraged or discouraged the use of AI-powered tools like ChatGPT?

For our law student community, we are interested in your experience as well:
