Domain-Specific AI : How Legal, Medical, and Engineering Are Being Reimagined | 113
Domain-specific AI is having its ‘main character’ moment—and Amith Nagarajan and Mallory Mejias break down three sharp examples. They unpack Three Points Law, an AI-first UK firm using tools like Legora and Qanooni to move beyond billable hours into value-based pricing; dive into Project Prometheus, Jeff Bezos’ big bet on ‘physical AI’ that learns from real-world experiments; and explore OpenEvidence as evidence-grounded clinical copilots surge in adoption alongside the American Hospital Association’s push for practical implementation. The throughline for associations: your domain expertise can become your biggest AI advantage—if you pick the right path between partnering, aggregating, or building.
