Ministry of Law sets GenAI guidelines for legal sector

The framework applies to lawyers, students, and tech developers.

The Ministry of Law launched a guide on 6 March outlining general principles and good practices for using generative artificial intelligence (AI) in the legal sector.

The framework serves as a reference for using generative AI in legal work and for developing AI tools for legal applications.

It applies to lawyers in private practice, in-house counsel, paralegals, legal secretaries, legal technologists, project managers, law students, alternative legal service providers, and developers of AI tools for the legal sector.

The document builds on the ‘Model AI Governance Framework for Generative AI’ developed by the Infocomm Media Development Authority and the AI Verify Foundation.

Moreover, it complements guidance issued by Singapore’s courts on the use of AI by court users.

The guide is non-binding and will be updated as necessary.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
