Does a #bioniclawyer need labels?

The #bioniclawyerproject went back into action this week at Alternative Events’ (brilliantly put together) In-House Legal Technology Summit. A great and energizing group on day 1, with super inputs from Susan Hackett and the ever pragmatic Ben Eason, among others. Post our session I had really interesting discussion about labels. I had pitched to the attendees that we are trying to get back to utility, delivery and consistent definition; moving away from confusing labels and the fuzziness of advertising creep (#AI, #Collaborative, #Innovative and even #legal – have all fallen victim to this, to some degree; and “labeling” people feels toxic). This makes sense to us – but not everyone fully agreed and we should welcome that challenge. So, do labels have value to our #bioniclawyer..?

PS – thank you very much to Sarah for the invitation and to Claire O’Brien for being a super chair.

PPS – in anticipation of #bioniclawyer being described as a label, we are trying terribly hard to make it a scientific definition… ;0)
