Yesterday, ‘Google Legal’ gave an inside look at how Gemini Enterprise can be deployed for lawyers, from everyday prompting, to NotebookLM use, to custom app development. Artificial Lawyer was there.

The demonstration was led by Xavier Polidoro, Legal Counsel, Google Cloud, and the highlight was what he called the ‘advanced’ uses, which covered ‘Cloud Legal AI Helpers’. These customised solutions appear to connect to the more specifically branded ‘Gemini Enterprise for Legal’ – the recently announced offering that comes with a number of agents, although in this case they used a different wording.

Here’s an overview of what was on show – with a lot of it simply about how lawyers can use the Gemini LLM capability and also NotebookLM for legal work. At the end, Polidoro covered the development of customised agents that can be connected to whatever sources you want, and then steered to perform certain tasks, e.g. redline a document, or help to write brief.

They also interestingly mentioned Harvey’s use of Gemini, as well as Freshfields – which they have mentioned before, and also Inspira.

So, first an overview of what they showed, then NotebookLM, then the Legal AI Helpers
