In this 32nd episode of Xraised, award-winning barrister and MiAI Law CEO Laina Chan explores one of the most pressing questions of our time: What remains uniquely human in a world where AI can recall every case, statute, and precedent in seconds?
Titled “The Human Touch in an AI-Driven Legal World,” this interview dives deep into the evolving relationship between artificial intelligence and the legal profession. While AI platforms like MiAI Law can now deliver unparalleled precision and speed in legal research, Laina argues that true advocacy still depends on human judgment, ethics, and storytelling.
Throughout the conversation, Laina breaks down the irreplaceable dimensions of legal practice — analysis, judgment, and persuasion — showing how these human skills elevate technology rather than compete with it. She discusses:
Why judgment under uncertainty remains the ultimate legal skill.
How advocacy and cross-examination depend on emotional intelligence and context.
Where AI’s analytical power ends and human responsibility begins.
The importance of ethical accountability and client trust in a digital era.
As the Most Influential CEO 2025 – LegalTech (Sydney) and one of Australia’s leading voices in legal AI, Laina also shares insights into MiAI Law’s groundbreaking technology — the first AI-powered legal research platform built from first principles. Under her leadership, MiAI Law has earned recognition from major institutions including the House of Commons, the LegalTech Fund, and the Law Society Journal.
From her early days as a researcher for Justice Michael Kirby to becoming a global thought leader in legal innovation, Laina’s journey reveals how AI can enhance—not replace—the human art of lawyering.
Watch now to discover how Laina Chan is redefining the balance between technology and humanity in law—and why the future of justice depends on both.
