Dickason joined LexisNexis in 2019 and previously ran the company's Asia-Pacific business, where he launched Lexis+ AI in that region. Before LexisNexis, he was chief technology officer at CoreLogic. &amp;nbsp; In a conversation with host Bob Ambrogi recorded just ahead of the launch, Dickason explains what actually happens inside the lab as engineers code live alongside customers, and how this differs from the customer input LexisNexis has always said drives its product development. They also discuss what has already come out of the lab, including a multimedia Prot\u00e9g\u00e9 Vault that lets a lawyer query a video deposition; why legal drafting is the lab\u2019s first priority; and how Dickason sees agents reshaping legal work.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Thank You To Our Sponsors This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.
