Tanya Sadoughi

I've been a practising lawyer for over eight years, starting my career as a banking lawyer at a Magic Circle firm. Three and a half years ago, when ChatGPT launched, I pivoted and became one of the firm's first AI Lawyers - a role that didn't exist before I asked to be sent on secondment. I now lead a team of AI lawyers, driving the adoption of AI across our global banking practice and coding prototypes that have been productionised and rolled out firm-wide. I'm at my best at the intersection of legal practice and building things.
