Now I’m confused. If the premise of the article is that AI will displace all this human labor, then what purpose does it serve if a human professional is still expected to be responsible for the end result anyway?

Imagine some wacky scientist creates a very smart robot—AI-driven and debatably sentient. The creator, who treats the robot like a child, sends it to law school. The robot aces every exam, passes the bar, and lands a job at a top law firm.

It’s still just a robot. A tool.

For that robot to have legal agency, it would need to be granted legal personhood—something currently reserved for humans.

Until the law changes, no matter how smart the robot is, it has no standing, no intent, and no accountability. It can’t sign contracts, can’t be sued, and can’t be held liable.
