Professional Services: First You Customize Your AI Twin, Then Sell Subscriptions

 It's already operational. A 375-lawyer firm in Ohio has created an AI twin for some of the partners. On Reuters Legal, Sara Randazzo reports.

"Working with an AI-focused research lab at Stanford Law School, Vorys has developed  'AI personas' of ​19 of its partners, which can be embedded within generative AI tools to offer responses to questions and edit documents in the style of individual partners."

As I interpret this, the twin platform for each partner would essentially include:

The unique kind of critical thinking, that is the strategic approaches

Stylistics in everything from arguments to language

Comprehensive examples of work products 

Access to legal fundamental such as statutes.

So, how could the twin be of use in-house? 

In many ways. 

For instance, a second-year assigned by a particular partner to a M&A deal can access the twin to carry out the tasks exactly as would the partner. But, without requiring the usual amount of partner time. Ideally efficiency would skyrocket. There would not be the usual number of marked-up drafts going back and forth. Or emails. 

One sad obvious implication is this. Twins would accelerate the predictions of reductions in demand for junior lawyers made by US Supreme Court chief justice John Roberts, Quinn Emanuel co-founder John Quinn and Paul, Weiss partner Brad Karp.

Another scary implication is the impact on the concept of the billable hour

However, the creation of twins for in-house use could only be the first step. The next in the profit continuum could be to sell subscriptions or licenses for use beyond the firm. That model would be available to all professional services.

For example, in public relations such-and-such a twin could be customized for an iconic crisis manager. Those purchasing a subscription could query the twin, as many of us do through chat bots, about a situation. Embedded would be specfics about when it would be necessary to refer the whatever for handling by the humans at the agency. Fewer humans would be needed at the agency but they would still be needed.

In investing, there could be a twin of my financial planner marketed by Edward Jones or an dazzling star like Warren Buffett marketed by Bershire Hathaway. The cost of that subscription could be less than a commission fee. For personalized guidance and transactions there could be an add-on charge to the price of the subscription.

Because chat bots have memory the OpenAI one I rely on already has evolved into my own twin. I access it regularly for sorting out my thinking on a subject and how I would communicate that for commercial purposes in my own stylistics. 

Selling subscriptions to our twin by coaches/tarot-readers like myself could be the way those sectors are going. That could be more cost-efficient for clients than one-on-one in-person sessions. Most coaches/psychics already realize this. We're rethinking the business.

Careers? So Over. It’s about Earning a Good Living. No matter what.

America Not Hiring in 2026: Back to Golden Age of Solopreneurs?

 For hiring, 2025 was a brutal year to search for a job. The Wall Street Journal reports that 2026 could be worse: "At a gathering of CEOs in Midtown Manhattan this month organized by the Yale School of Management, 66% of leaders surveyed said they planned to either fire workers or maintain the size of their existing teams next year. Only a third indicated they planned to hire." The WSJ adds that pullback from adding manpower could be temporary. But given shareholders' demand for cost-efficiency and the continual improvements in AI, chronic unemployment could become standard. However, there is a solution. An old-fashioned one. That's becoming a solopreneur, that is setting up your own business without partners or employees. The model dates back to ancient times.  The golden age of the solo business owner in America had been from the late 1800s to about the mid 1920s.  There had been a wave of immigrants, discrimination against them and few jobs. They drove pushcarts ...

Newly Minted PhDs in Economics Face Unwelcoming Job Market: Of Course, I Left My PhD in Humanities Off the Resume

Monitor postings on Reddit subunits focused on careers and it's no longer news that PhDs, both newly minted and those already in the labor market, generally are finding the credential an obstacle in the search for a job or even contract assignments. No, not an asset.  Let's cut to the chase. The highly educated have to get smart about this, fast. With some exceptions, I advise those I coach to leave the PhD off job-search materials. The negative assumptions among those hiring range from that you expect too much money to you'll be a know-it-all.  When my boutique collapsed post-9/11 and I had to land a survival job I lopped off everything but the BA. At the interview I dumbed-down my vocabulary. Sure Harvard was started in 1636 but America remains anti-intellectual. In addition, the integration of AI into strategy and operations makes knowledge work in general less and less marketable.  That's the narrative of our times: Advanced degrees having low or no ROI. The result,...

Harvard and Grades: Leveling the Playing Field

  Today, faculty at Harvard vote on the issue of limiting "A" grades.  The perception has been that too many of those have been handed out but not earned.  It's common for Harvard College graduates to go after jobs in finance and consulting and apply to top law schools. Those require high grades. That's the first cut. Without those grades the edge of the investment of a Harvard education could be diminished. Hell, you could have gone to a state school. Obviously students oppose limiting the number of "A" grades. The playing field on which they compete for a future could be made more level. Earning a Good Living in 2026 Involves Mental Combat.
