Bloomberg Law reported Pillsbury uses ChatGPT, Harvey, CoCounsel, Microsoft Copilot, Definely, and ClearBrief across practice groups. Chair David Dekker said the firm will not pursue a capital-intensive single-platform strategy, contrasting reports of Kirkland & Ellis's roughly $500M AI investment.
