Why it matters

Above the Law has published an updated legal-tech glossary sponsored by CosmoLex, expanding its original "Legal Tech-To-English Dictionary" to cover artificial intelligence terminology. The new version, subtitled "The Ghosts Of Artificial Intelligence Past," provides plain-English definitions of foundational AI concepts—including machine learning and related terms—designed for lawyers and legal professionals navigating AI-enabled practice management and legal workflow tools.

The piece functions as an explainer rather than reporting on a specific legal development or regulatory action. Its scope and depth remain unclear from available descriptions.

The timing reflects a broader industry shift. As law firms accelerate AI adoption, attorneys increasingly encounter these tools in daily practice without standardized vocabulary to discuss them. A accessible reference guide addressing this gap serves a practical need for practitioners seeking to understand AI capabilities and limitations before implementation decisions.
