The premise
Class action document volume defeats manual review; AI review is now standard practice but requires defensible methodology.
What AI does well here
- Document protocols before deployment so opposing counsel cannot challenge methodology successfully
- Validate accuracy on a control set per responsiveness category
- Maintain privilege workflow separate from main review
- Track production decisions with audit trail for downstream challenges
What AI cannot do
- Substitute for attorney privilege review
- Make production decisions on close-call documents
- Replace meet-and-confer disclosure of AI methodology
