Agents, AI and a not-so-secret role – Colin Fisher, Head of Knowledge | CMS Unscripted episode 6

What will make a great lawyer in an AI-enabled world? Colin Fisher reflects on how CMS is thinking about smarter ways of working, from capturing expertise across the firm to using AI-powered tools that support learning, research and better decision-making. His role may once have sounded more like espionage than legal practice, but the episode explores the growing role of AI agents, the importance of sharing knowledge rather than reinventing the wheel, alongside a wider conversation about why context, empathy and human judgement still matter.
