SKILLS Law Summer Seminars - Leaning into Probabilistic Decision Making

Abstract co-founders Pat Utz and Mohammed Hayat, alongside Data Scientist Amber Keahey, sat down for the SKILLS Law Summer Seminar series to chat about how legal teams can embrace the probabilistic nature of AI models—including CNNs, RNNs, and transformers—to make more confident decisions in uncertainty-rich workflows. The session covered when to build versus buy AI tools, how model and prompt structure shape outcomes, and what this means for resource allocation and the evolving path toward AGI.
