In line with the recently implemented 'Act on Promotion of Artificial Intelligence Industry and Creation of Trust Foundation (AI Basic Act)', a policy debate will be held to review Legal Tech's policies.

According to Daeryun Law Firm, the office of Rep. Kwon Chil-seung of the Democratic Party of Korea and the Korea Artificial Intelligence Association (Chairman Kim Hyun-cheol) will hold a 'Legal Tech Policy Debate to Guarantee the Rights and Choices of People in the AI ​​Era' in the 2nd Seminar Room of the National Assembly Building on the 9th.

In this debate, in line with new changes in the legal market, including legal tech, △ inspection of the status of the technological cooperation ecosystem between law firms and IT companies △ enactment and revision of laws for the win-win development of the legal tech industry △ legal data opening and standardization work at the government level △ plans to foster small and medium-sized legal tech startups will be discussed.

At this event, Choi Yi-seon, policy expert at the Korea Artificial Intelligence Association, will give a presentation on the topic of ‘Direction of legal tech policy in the AI ​​era: balanced protection of people’s choice, national competitiveness, and legal sovereignty.’ Commissioner Choi plans to predict changes in the legal market due to the introduction of AI and announce policy recommendations to protect the rights and interests of legal consumers.

In the following designated discussion, Yang Cheon-soo, a professor at Yeungnam University Law School, will serve as the moderator, and lawyer Daeryun Lee Seo-hyung will participate as a discussant.

Rep. Kwon Chil-seung, who hosted the debate, said, "The recently implemented 'AI Basic Act' alone is not enough to fine-tune the points where lawyers' expertise and IT companies' innovation capabilities conflict," and added, "We will do our best to enact the 'Legal Tech Promotion Act' and establish an institutional framework so that the legal profession and venture companies can escape the shackles of wasteful conflict and move toward future-oriented coexistence."

CEO of Daeryun Kim Kook-il said, "In the rapidly changing AI era, innovation in legal services is not an option but a necessity," and added, "As a law firm leading legal tech in Korea, we will take the lead in conveying vivid voices from the legal field and creating effective policy alternatives so that Legal Tech can contribute to strengthening the legal rights of the people."
