As a ECM Lawyer in UK/ US/ Singapore, no you would not. You sound like an intern. The costs are alarmingly high, and the work is monstrous.
Toh bete ek month intern karne ke baad aise thread kyu banate ho?
In all seriousness, the following practices will be obsolete in the 10 years from now-
1. ECM for sure, Gen AI can replace all their templatized BS. Also B&F.
2. Tax has GOT to leave the lawyers and go to the CAs ffs.
3.M&A/ Funds will be reduced to research questions, procedural assistance, and legal opinion. Due diligence will be the out of human touch.
4. HR, except one lady in the front desk, all internal HR will be external.
5. Labour/ IPR should only see a surge as the Indian government is trampled by capitalism and India finally becomes a developed country, theres more than drafting here, so AI could be of less use.
6. Litigation will NOT be replaced by AI in 10-15 years. It will continue its victorian practices.
