A group of general counsel from companies including Microsoft, Ford and Anglo American have banded together with alternative legal services provider Factor to launch an initiative to promote the use of generative AI in corporate legal departments.
The project, known as The Sense Collective, aims to do this through a combination of community and collaboration, helping in-house teams navigate the rapid pace of change that AI is fuelling through collective insights and knowledge sharing. The initiative will kick off officially in March, though membership of the group is limited to maximise engagement among the initial cohort.
Varun Mehta, Factor’s CEO, said the initiative is “a unified stride towards transforming enthusiasm for GenAI into targeted, impactful applications in corporate legal work. It’s about channelling our efforts, sharpening our shared insights and accelerating the journey from concept to practical application”.
Mike Haven, head of global legal operations at Intel, one of the member firms, said: “Instead of each organisation expending effort and tackling the same questions in isolation, we’re collaborating to find practical, expedited solutions, dispel hype from reality, and go far together.”
