Daya Naef is the founder of the Success Partner. She interviewed Dr. Floor Blindenbach and together they discuss how (smaller) law firms can take advantage of a new technology like ChatGPT. Among others, they discussed the Generative AI (ChatGPT) Project Program that Organizing4Innovation is launching on August 31.
