Thirteen AI Books For Lawyers: An Opinionated Guide
Via LLRX – Thirteen AI Books For Lawyers: An Opinionated Guide – There’s an obvious objection to recommending books about AI: timeliness. Any book about the tools themselves is out of date by the time it’s printed. But that misses the point, as Jerry Lawson points out. Good books are still better than a vendor demo or a post at providing a framework for understanding what these systems do well, where they break down, and which failures should worry someone holding a bar card.
See? AI can pay for itself. (Unless you are in the insurance industry…)
AI tools generated nearly $1 billion in extra costs, Blue Cross insurers say
AI tools are raising health spending for insurers by nearly $1 billion over two years, as providers bill for more severe patient care, according to a Blue Cross Blue Shield Association study released Thursday.
Between 2024 and 2025, providers more frequently billed for secondary conditions, or those stemming from a separate illness from the one they were treating, driving costs up by $653 million for BCBS companies during that period. Overall, more intense care contributed $942 million in costs to BCBS firms over the two-year period, when compared to 2023, the study added.
BCBSA said providers used AI technology to identify secondary conditions by scanning existing patient records or using ambient scribes, which passively listen to conversations with patients and draft medical notes.
Patient visits where more complex medical care is documented command higher payments by insurers. In hospital settings, secondary or coexisting conditions can be categorized as more complex.
There is testing and then there is testing. How seriously do you view the threat?

Classified Estimates Show the NSA Is Paying Billions to Test AI Models
The National Security Agency told lawmakers that it is spending billions of dollars in taxpayer funds this year evaluating and testing advanced artificial intelligence models, according to two sources familiar with classified intelligence estimates.
The price tag — which is significantly greater than previously known — has led lawmakers to believe that a more comprehensive AI regulatory system could cost the government tens of billions of dollars per year, the sources said.
… Estimates of prior proposals to establish new federal AI regulatory oversight suggested a far lower price tag.
For instance, the Congressional Budget Office estimated the AI Security and Innovation Act, a bipartisan House proposal to establish a center on AI risks and “facilitate the mitigation of those risks,” would cost roughly $20 million per year.
A separate bill in the House to establish a new reporting and tracking system for AI calls for $36 million in total over the next five years, the CBO reported.
