00:0001:07:21
00:00
People were asking us about Mithos and everything, even though I think really sickly a lot of legal work does not require Mithos level intelligence.
大家一直在问我们 Mithos 什么的,虽然我真的觉得很多法律工作并不需要 Mithos 级别的智能。
00:06
Parallegals gone, junior lawyers gone, I don't need them.
律师助理没了,初级律师没了,我不需要他们。
00:10
That's actually not what we're seeing, and we had one problem where it wouldn't cite properly,
但实际上我们看到的不是这样,我们遇到过一个它没法正确引用的问题,
00:14
and so we'd be like, next maldery solved, it went from like 70% to like 99%.
然后我们就会说,下一个 maldery 解决了,它从大概 70% 变成了大概 99%。
00:18
She's like, we did nothing, and like, great.
她说,我们什么都没做,然后就像,太好了。
00:20
But if you're doing a $400 million M&A transaction, you're going to want to look over.
但如果你在做一笔 4 亿美元的 M&A 交易,你肯定会想仔细过一遍。
00:24
We're just going to be 20 engineers for the rest of the company's history, and like, we're going to beat everyone as much bigger.
我们公司以后整个历史里都只会是 20 个工程师,然后还要打败所有规模大得多的公司。
00:29
We're 100 engineers now, and it feels like we're way too small.
我们现在有 100 个工程师,但感觉我们还是太小了。
00:32
But it's something that I'm talking with is like, how much of our product can just be the agent?
但我一直在跟人聊的一点是,我们的产品里有多少可以直接就是 agent?
00:35
We're sold the other stuff.
我们卖的是其他那些东西。
00:37
Okay, we're here in a studio with special guests, Jacob Lawison, CTO of Legora.
好,我们现在在演播室,和特别嘉宾 Legora 的 CTO Jacob Lawison 在一起。
00:43
Did I get a rate, Lawison?
我没念错吧,Lawison?
00:45
That's fine, yeah, that's okay.
没事,对,没关系。
00:46
I'm not surprised to hear that out. It's Danish, yeah, exactly.
听你这么说我不意外。是丹麦的,对,没错。
00:49
Does it have a special history?
它有什么特别的来历吗?
00:50
It just, no, Sen is like Sun, Sunoff.
就是,不,Sen 就像 Sun,Sunoff。
00:52
Sunoff Lawyers?
Sunoff Lawyers?
00:53
You have Sun, and yeah, Sunoff Lawyers, that's my name.
你叫 Sun,对,Sunoff Lawyers,这就是我的名字。
00:56
Nice.
不错。
00:57
We've crossed paths here and there.
我们时不时会碰上。
00:59
You spoke at AI a few times, and obviously, Legora is one of the fastest-going legal tech
你在 AI 活动上讲过几次,而且很明显,Legora 是史上发展最快的 legal tech 之一;你在节目开始前说的一点我觉得特别有意思。
01:04
in history, and you said something at the start in a pre-show that I thought was really interesting.
你说你的根源非常欧洲,尽管很明显你们正在 New York 和 SF 扩张。
01:09
You said your origin is very European, even though obviously you're expanding in New York and SF.
你们的文化感觉有什么不一样?
01:14
What feels different about your culture?
你们的文化哪里让你感觉不一样?
01:17
I think we are just at the core, probably, very humble about what we're doing,
我觉得我们其实还处在核心位置,可能对自己在做的事非常谦逊,
01:22
because we've always been the underdog from the very beginning.
因为我们从一开始就一直是 underdog。
01:25
No one believed the smallest startup in a basement in Stockholm was going to outcompede
没人相信斯德哥尔摩地下室里最小的 startup 能 outcompete
01:29
the huge beam off. There was way ahead of us in the US.
那个巨大的 beam off。在美国,他们远远领先于我们。
01:32
So I think we've always been underdog, since we've always been very humble.
所以我觉得我们一直是 underdog,因为我们一直都非常谦逊。
01:36
We've always had to fight for our existence.
我们一直都得为自己的生存而战。
01:40
I think it's something we've had to learn as we've also become more and more
我觉得这是我们不得不学会的东西,随着我们也变得越来越
01:44
as we've entered the US and been in the US a lot more,
随着我们进入美国、在美国待得越来越多,
01:46
as to be a little bit more bold, and it's to tell the world how great we are,
就是稍微再大胆一点,然后告诉全世界我们有多厉害,
01:51
because it doesn't come naturally, too, I think some of us.
因为我觉得这对我们中的一些人来说也不是天生的。
01:54
I want to start by going over your guys' product,
我想先聊聊你们的产品,
01:57
because I feel like with a lot of these legal products,
因为我觉得很多这类法律产品,
02:00
they're under wraps, you're not supposed to show it.
都是藏着掖着的,不能随便给人看。
02:03
But yeah, if you could just talk about what does the product look like,
但话说回来,你能不能就讲讲这个产品长什么样,
02:06
and maybe how did you guys get there?
还有你们是怎么走到今天的?
02:08
What have been the product iterations that got you to where you are today?
产品经历了哪些迭代,才让你们走到今天?
02:12
I think that would be really interesting.
我觉得那会非常有意思。
02:13
Absolutely. The way everything started was chat GVT with Swedish loss.
当然。一切的开端就是 chat GVT with Swedish loss。
02:18
It's such a tool in it that was literally the entire thing.
它里面有这么一个工具,那真的就是全部。
02:22
That's where we started with legal research, which is a huge market,
我们就是从 legal research 开始的,那是一个巨大的市场,
02:25
basically, in the world, where lawyer spend a lot of time figuring out
基本上,在全世界都是,律师会花大量时间搞清楚
02:29
what are previous cases that look like this, what's the legal precedent?
有哪些以前的案例看起来像这样,legal precedent 是什么?
02:32
Is this what have previous people done in these situations?
以前的人在这些情况下是不是这么做的?
02:35
That's extremely important.
这极其重要。
02:37
That has always been part of our product.
这一直是我们产品的一部分。
02:39
Basically, we started from an agent, you could ask questions,
基本上,我们是从一个 agent 开始的,你可以提问,
02:42
and it would query loss.
然后它会去查询 loss。
02:44
That was a very simple beginning.
那是一个非常简单的开始。
02:46
Then from that, it's expanded.
然后从那开始,它扩展了。
02:47
It was expanded in what can the agent do?
它是在 agent 能做什么这方面扩展的?
02:50
It will now draft a lot of stuff really well.
它现在能非常好地起草很多内容。
02:53
It will edit word files.
它会编辑 Word 文件。
02:54
It will move your files away, organize everything, run really complex analyses,
它会帮你把文件移走,把所有东西整理好,跑非常复杂的分析,
03:01
and we've added just a bunch of more features to it.
而且我们又给它加了一大堆功能。
03:03
One of our features to call a tabular view, which is now a name that's being used in industry,
我们有个功能叫 tabular view,这现在已经是业内常用的一个名字,
03:08
and we're very happy to see Claude for legal use in our terminology.
我们也很高兴看到 Claude 用于法律用途,用我们的术语来说。
03:14
Which is actually a way to just bulk extract and bulk review many, many agreements,
这其实是一种批量提取和批量审阅大量协议的方式,
03:19
which you do in due diligence and when you raise money or whatever.
也就是你在 due diligence 和融资之类的时候会做的事。
03:21
That's part of it.
这是其中的一部分。
03:23
We help lawyers just do their work much more efficiently, much better.
我们帮助律师更高效、更好地完成工作。
03:27
Outside of just doing the work, we're also now helping orchestrate the work a lot more.
除了做具体的工作之外,我们现在也更多地在帮助统筹整个工作流程。
03:33
Then we were just even a year ago.
比一年前可多多了。
03:37
We have a thing called lists, which is sort of linear for us.
我们有个叫 lists 的东西,对我们来说算是比较线性的。
03:42
We have intake, which is a way to collaborate with clients.
我们有 intake,这是一种和客户协作的方式。
03:46
And we have portal, which is also sort of a way to collaborate.
还有 portal,这也算是一种协作方式。
03:49
You know, lawyer to lawyer, client to lawyer to agent, agent to agent.
你知道的,律师对律师、客户对律师对 agent、agent 对 agent。
03:54
Maybe we're spending a lot of time there because there's just frankly
也许我们之所以在那上面花很多时间,坦白说,是因为你 10 年前跟律师打交道的方式,甚至可能到今天,都真的很痛苦。
03:59
the way that you work with a lawyer 10 years ago or maybe even today is really painful
十年前,甚至可能到今天,你跟律师合作的方式都真的很痛苦
04:04
and there's loads of room to do that.
而且这方面还有很大的空间。
04:06
And a much better way to be honest.
而且说实话,这是个好得多的方式。
04:08
And so those are like, I think the two things.
所以我觉得,大概就是这两件事。
04:09
It's doing the work and it's also like orchestrating the work.
它既是在做具体工作,也像是在 orchestrating 这些工作。
04:12
When did you guys start building the agent?
你们是什么时候开始做 agent 的?
04:15
So I mean, we basically had this switch from the assistant to the agent.
所以我的意思是,我们基本上经历了从 assistant 到 agent 的这个转变。
04:18
Yeah, we call it right.
对,我们就是这么叫的,对吧。
04:20
I guess that the agent, I don't know, I want to say a year ago probably.
我猜,agent 的话,我不知道,我大概想说是一年前吧。
04:25
Yeah, so this is a rough timeline for people who are understanding YC 2023.
对,所以这是给正在了解 YC 2023 的人的一个大致时间线。
04:30
Yes.
是的。
04:30
And then you were YC founder as well.
然后你也是 YC 创始人。
04:32
YC-24.
YC-24。
04:33
YC-24.
YC-24。
04:33
Yeah, I was in YC-23.
对,我当时在 YC-23。
04:35
The Gora was 24.
The Gora 是 24。
04:36
Okay.
好的。
04:36
And then, so there is, this is like a little bit pre-agents really taking it.
然后,所以现在有点像 pre-agents 真的开始接手了,哪怕还只是一点点。
04:41
Exactly.
没错。
04:41
And then like using models obviously change everything.
然后,显然用 models 会改变一切。
04:43
I mean, in one sense today, we had a preview of the products.
我是说,从某种意义上说,今天我们预览了一下产品。
04:49
It does look, well, preview.
看起来确实,嗯,是预览。
04:51
We had a private thing.
我们搞了个私下的活动。
04:52
But we will put up a video on the YouTube.
但我们会在 YouTube 上放个视频。
04:54
It's mostly like ChatGPT for lawyers, right?
它主要就像是给律师用的 ChatGPT,对吧?
04:56
Like a very fair to say that.
这么说挺公道的。
04:58
But then the sidebar has a lot of nice custom tools like the tabular view,
但 sidebar 里有很多不错的自定义工具,比如 tabular view,
05:02
like the intake, which I really liked.
比如 intake,我真的很喜欢。
05:05
And much other things.
还有很多其他东西。
05:07
Exactly.
没错。
05:08
That's exactly what it is.
它就是这么回事。
05:09
It's co-work or ChatGPT.
它是 co-work 或者 ChatGPT。
05:12
Just like a really, really good for legal work.
就像是一个真的、真的非常适合法律工作的工具。
05:13
And yeah, the workflow for either in-house corporate lawyers,
而且对,这个 workflow 不论是给公司内部法务,
05:17
like people looking for upcoming regulations,
比如那些在关注即将出台法规的人,
05:19
not all these things.
不只是这些东西。
05:20
And we can talk about more of the products there.
然后我们也可以多聊聊那边更多的产品。
05:23
Yeah, what models are you guys using underneath?
对,你们底层用的是什么 models?
05:25
Like, can you talk about that?
就是,能聊聊这个吗?
05:27
I mean, we're using a bunch of different ones,
我是说,我们用了好几种不同的,
05:29
depending on tasks, right?
取决于任务,对吧?
05:30
And that's not available to the lawyer to see.
而且那个律师是看不到的。
05:34
You guys for the agents?
你们是支持 agents 的吗?
05:36
Yeah, well, we've been back and forth on this.
是啊,嗯,我们在这个事上一直来回讨论。
05:38
Yeah, it's just like everyone else, I think.
是啊,我觉得就跟其他人一样。
05:40
In the agent, there's a model selector for the primary model.
在 agent 里,有一个给 primary model 用的 model selector。
05:43
But there are certain tools that we use different models in.
但有些 tools,我们会在里面用不同的 models。
05:46
And there's like tabular view.
然后还有像 tabular view 这样的东西。
05:47
And like, we try.
然后吧,我们会试试。
05:49
I think we found it most effective to subdivide the problem
我觉得我们发现最有效的做法是把问题细分
05:51
and route on like, as we subdivide the task.
然后随着我们把任务细分,像那样去做 route。
05:55
But we do right now have a picker in the agent.
但现在我们的 agent 里确实有一个 picker。
05:59
I'm not sure if that's going to stay there always, to be honest.
老实说,我不确定它会不会一直留在那里。
06:01
Ah, so yeah.
啊,所以,嗯。
06:03
Yeah, I mean, so I bring a little bit of context to this
对,我是说,我在这里补充一点背景
06:05
because I'm an advisor for cognition.
因为我是 cognition 的 advisor。
06:07
Yeah.
对。
06:08
And when I joined, you know, part of my thesis for what an agent lab is,
而且我加入的时候,你知道,我关于 agent lab 是什么的论点里,有一部分是,
06:12
an agent lab is, you know, ideally a domain-specific GPT wrapper.
一个 agent lab,你知道,理想情况下就是一个 domain-specific 的 GPT wrapper。
06:17
Yeah, right?
对吧?
06:17
Like, we run the, we are the domain experts.
就像,我们负责运营这个,我们是领域专家。
06:21
We will pay attention to you.
我们会认真关注你。
06:22
We'll serve your needs way, way more than the frontier labs.
我们会满足你的需求,远远超过那些 frontier labs。
06:24
And we'll give you the best of the frontier labs,
而且我们会把 frontier labs 最好的东西给你,
06:26
to put away our job.
来把我们的工作收起来。
06:27
So our job is to decide for you because your job is not to...
所以我们的工作就是替你做决定,因为你的工作不是去……
06:31
Exactly.
没错。
06:32
We'll always keep you on the Pareto frontier.
我们会始终让你处在 Pareto frontier 上。
06:33
Yes.
是的。
06:34
And make sure that it's just great all the time
并且确保它一直都很棒
06:35
and you don't have to dive into all the details.
而你不用深入所有细节。
06:37
Because like, one of the things that I've exactly to this point,
因为,就像,有一件事正好说到这个点上了,
06:39
if you go to a lawyer and you're asked them,
如果你去找律师,然后你问他们,
06:41
oh, you're going to, you know, draft this contract based on this precedent.
哦,你要,你知道,根据这个先例起草这份合同。
06:44
Do you think that's a sonnet higher or an opus mid task?
你觉得那是个 sonnet higher 还是 opus mid 的任务?
06:48
Like, you know, they won't know.
就,你知道,他们不会知道的。
06:49
Just give me this part as well.
就把这部分也给我吧。
06:50
Exactly.
没错。
06:51
Just like, make sure it works.
就是,确保它能正常工作。
06:52
Orally rate is $1,000 an hour.
Orally rate 是每小时 1,000 美元。
06:53
Exactly.
没错。
06:54
Just like, what make it work?
就像,到底是什么让它奏效的?
06:57
So, yes, I originally came in with that.
所以,对,我一开始就是带着这个想法来的。
06:58
I was like, oh, yeah, this is what Devon does differently.
我当时就想,哦对,这就是 Devon 做得不一样的地方。
07:01
And now we have five things in a model picker,
而现在我们在 Astra 的 model picker 里有五个选项,包括 Fable 和 Opus。
07:02
including Fable and Opus, in Astra.
而且大家都想试试那个花哨的新 model。
07:05
And people want to experiment with the fancy new model.
你现在还是这么想吗?
07:10
Do you still have the same?
我觉得是。
07:12
I think so.
我觉得是这样。
07:12
I think it's probably, it's definitely way less
我觉得这大概——不,肯定在 goal 上比在 coding engineering 上少得多。
07:14
in the goal than it is in coding engineering.
嗯。
07:16
Yeah.
但肯定有些人就是想马上要 Fable 1。
07:17
But there are definitely people that I just want
而且你知道,大家一直在问我们 mythos 之类的东西。
07:19
Fable 1 right away.
尽管我觉得,现实地说,很多法律工作并不需要 mythos 级别的智能。
07:20
And, you know, people were asking us about mythos and everything.
而且你知道,大家一直在问我们 mythos 以及各种相关的东西。
07:24
Even though, I think, realistically, a lot of
不过我觉得,现实一点说,很多
07:26
legal work does not require mythos level intelligence.
法律工作并不需要 mythos 级别的智能。
07:29
Yeah, so exactly, right?
对,所以就是这样,对吧?
07:31
Like, I think basically, you're like, okay, we'll give you the option.
就,我觉得基本上,你会说,好吧,我们给你这个选项。
07:34
You ask for this.
这是你自己要求的。
07:35
Exactly.
没错。
07:35
But you're going to run down your credits like 10x faster.
但你的 credits 会消耗得快 10 倍。
07:39
Yeah, I would have loved.
是啊,我本来会很喜欢的。
07:40
We fought introducing it for a very long time.
我们抵制引入它很久了。
07:42
And then in the end, we just kind of caved in and we're like,
然后到最后,我们就有点妥协了,我们说,
07:44
okay, if you want this level of control,
好,如果你想要这种程度的控制,
07:46
you know, then we'll give it to you.
你知道的,那我们就给你。
07:48
Yeah.
嗯。
07:48
So you think that models are already, like,
所以你觉得 models 已经,像是,
07:50
as good as lawyers need.
达到律师需要的水平了。
07:52
Like, there is no need for them to get better.
就是,它们没必要变得更好了。
07:53
It's a, I think it's a part of distribution.
这是,我觉得这是 distribution 的一部分。
07:55
So like, there's probably like six to a percent of the work.
所以,大概有百分之六到百分之一的工作吧。
07:58
Yeah.
嗯。
07:58
We can do really well right now.
我们现在可以做得非常好。
08:00
And the, you know, from now on, it's like a cost and latency thing.
而且,你知道,从现在开始,这就像是个 cost 和 latency 的问题。
08:04
But then there's the rest of the thing where,
但然后还有剩下的部分,就是,
08:07
especially for like very complex analysis,
尤其是对于非常复杂的分析来说,
08:09
we still need more intelligence.
我们仍然需要更强的智能。
08:11
And then I think there's also just the work expands kind of.
然后我觉得,还有一点就是,工作本身也会有点扩展。
08:14
It's like, that's the work that we have right now.
就像,这就是我们现在手头的工作。
08:15
But also the work of what a lawyer does
但律师做的事情
08:17
probably expands with intelligence.
可能也会随着智能提升而扩展。
08:20
Yeah.
是啊。
08:20
I imagine.
我想也是。
08:20
Early on, like, when you guys first started,
早期的时候,呃,你们刚开始那会儿,
08:23
I guess transitioning to the agents or building the agents,
我猜是在转向 agents 或者构建 agents 的时候,
08:26
like, what were, like, what models were you guys using?
就是,你们当时用的是,呃,哪些 models?
08:29
I guess it would have been like Opus 4.6 or something.
我猜大概是 Opus 4.6 之类的吧。
08:31
That would have been, yeah, Sonnet 4.6.
那应该是,对,Sonnet 4.6。
08:34
Opus 4.6 is probably right.
Opus 4.6 应该没错。
08:37
What were the agents, like, not good at that point?
那时候 agents 都,呃,不擅长什么?
08:40
That they're much better right now, even though it's only a little like nine months later?
你是说它们现在好多了,哪怕才过了大概九个月?
08:44
Sub-agent delegation was one of them
Sub-agent delegation 是其中一个
08:47
that we've gotten working really well now
我们现在已经让它跑得很好了
08:48
for like fan-out type retrieval queries.
比如用于 fan-out 类型的 retrieval queries。
08:50
We're just extremely well for us now.
现在对我们来说就是极其好。
08:52
That was difficult before.
这之前挺难的。
08:54
We basically track.
我们基本上会追踪。
08:55
So we have a team that's just doing e-valles.
所以我们有一个团队,专门在做 evals。
08:57
And so we track all of the models performance
然后我们会追踪所有 models 的表现
08:59
in different practice areas, which is like subgroups of legal
在不同 practice areas 里,也就是 legal 的不同子分组
09:02
and different tasks across all of those.
以及这些领域里的各种不同任务。
09:03
So we basically have like a big cheek map.
所以我们基本上有一张很大的 heat map。
09:05
And we're like,
然后我们就,
09:06
and then we can see them move.
然后我们就能看到它们移动。
09:07
And it's like, usually they improve most stuff.
而且一般来说,它们会改进大部分东西。
09:11
But there's actually a lot of model releases
但实际上有很多模型发布
09:13
where they improve some and regress in others.
它们在有些方面改进了,在另一些方面却退步了。
09:15
Okay.
好。
09:16
And that actually happens a lot more than you'd think.
而这实际上比你想的要常见得多。
09:17
Like, what are some of those tasks?
比如,那些任务有哪些?
09:20
Like, are you familiar with how you guys are running a lot of the e-valles?
比如,你熟悉你们是怎么跑很多 e-valles 的吗?
09:22
Like, what are those different sub-signants, I guess, that you look at?
比如说,你关注的那些不同的 sub-signants,我猜,都是些什么?
09:25
So there's different, just like frame-asuf.
所以会有不同的,就像 frame-asuf 那样的东西。
09:28
So we have different basically, like,
所以我们基本上有不同,呃,
09:30
worlds or like, our own environments, essentially,
世界,或者说,基本上就是我们自己的环境,
09:31
which is like, here's a large work in projects
也就是说,这里多多少少总是有一些大型的项目工作。
09:35
always, more or less.
所以就像,这里有一个 10,000 个文件的数据室。
09:35
So it's like, here's 10,000 file data room.
最后你是在做 due diligence。
09:38
You're doing it due diligence in the end.
说到底,你做的还是 due diligence。
09:41
A grid report looks like this.
一份 grid report 大概长这样。
09:42
Like, it contains all these red flags
就比如说,它会把所有这些 red flags 都包含进去
09:44
and like, it doesn't contain whatever weird stuff.
然后呢,它不会包含那些奇奇怪怪的东西。

11:36
it wouldn't cite properly.

12:00
I assume your use of open models

12:02
is also increasing.

12:02
We can talk about that.
这个我们可以聊。
12:04

you know, what is the job?

The job is, maybe not, in the early days,
这份工作,也许不是,在早期,
12:13
it was not so much to do e-vails,

12:15
because it was mostly exposed model capability to lawyers.

12:18
Yeah.
嗯。
12:19
The huge part of it is just figuring out

12:25
10 years, with all of this stuff.

12:31
How do people work?

12:32
How do you collaborate?

12:33
If it's not a 200 thread email

12:35
with, like, v5 word files back and forth,
还带着 v5 word files 来回传,
12:37
like, what does that look like?
就是,那到底会是什么样?
12:38
And that's like,
而且那就像是,
12:39
not even necessarily truly AI.

12:42
That's just, like,
那就只是,就,
12:43
a much better product experience.

12:47
and all of those sort of really important things

13:20

I gave this, I actually gave this a lot of thought
这个我,其实我认真琢磨了很久
14:24
just, like, last week,
就,差不多上周吧,
14:25
because the partnership model,
因为 partnership model 这个事,
14:27
I don't want to get into too much of the details,
我不想讲太多细节,
14:28
but, like, the partnership model
但是,就是,partnership model
14:30
kind of exists

14:33
because the only type of capital
是因为这些公司唯一拥有的资本类型
14:36
that these companies have is human capital.

or, like, a software engineering firm

14:41
or, like, a manufacturer,

14:50
like, professional services
比如说,专业服务
14:52
and it's the same for, like, consultancies
咨询公司之类的也一样
14:54
and whatever else,
还有别的什么,
14:55
all of your value is in your people.
你所有的价值都在你的人身上。
14:57
And, you can't really own human capital.

15:08
the human capital the owners of the company
human capital 变成公司的所有者
15:11

15:31
well, there's the ex law firm way of doing things.
嗯,有那种前律所做事的方式。
15:34
And we can codify that, I think,
我觉得我们可以把那个固化下来,
15:36
and we can build a system
然后我们可以搭一个系统,
15:38
and whether that's, like, a self-improving knowledge graph

15:41
or whatever it is,
还是别的什么,
15:42
and, like, precedent files and documents,

15:48
And that can be their IP,

15:51
the human expertise and judgment into a system
人类的专业知识和判断力编码进一个系统里
15:54
that, I think, is not just rambling completely,
我觉得,这不只是在漫无边际地乱说,
15:56
but, like, that's something that we want to help empower.
而是,这确实是我们想要帮助赋能的东西。
16:00
And just that change the partnership model then,

16:02

16:14
or make this luck step, whatever.

16:17
We need to figure out
我们得弄清楚
16:18
in a sense of structure

16:19
where partnerships, partners,
在合作关系里,合作伙伴
16:22
aren't incentivized to codify things

16:23
for, to build an asset for the company,
去为公司打造资产,
16:25

16:28
they don't get any dividends
他们拿不到任何分红
16:30
from the assets that they built.
从他们打造的那些资产里。
16:32
Yeah.
是啊。
16:32
So it's, like, yeah,
所以,就像,是啊,
16:34
I think the whole business model is,
我觉得整个商业模式就是,
16:37
we'll see.
走着瞧吧。
16:38
Yeah, that's all in question right now.
是啊,现在这些都还不好说。
16:40
Yeah, my actual, other take, you know,
是啊,其实我另一个看法,你知道,
16:43
so on the partnership level,
所以在合伙人层面上,
16:44
that's like the top end of the industry.
那基本上就是行业的顶端了。
16:47
Actually, my take is more on the bottom end, right?
其实,我的看法更偏向底端,对吧?
16:49
Yeah, what happened there?
是啊,那边发生了什么?
16:50
Apparently goes gone, right?
据说都没了,对吧?
16:52
Like, junior lawyers gone.

16:53
I don't need them.

16:54
Like, it's, that's actually not what we're seeing.
就,其实,我们看到的并不是这样。
16:56
Okay, I think it's, I don't know,
好吧,我觉得这,我也说不准,
16:58
would you say that we're seeing that in engineering?
你觉得我们在 engineering 里看到这种情况了吗?
17:01
Yeah.
嗯。
17:02
So, junior engineers are really the kind of cooks.
所以,初级工程师真的就是那种厨子。
17:05
Like, you kind of have to come out
就像,你差不多得从
17:06
of dropout of university, fully baked,
大学辍学出来的时候,就已经完全成熟了,
17:09
or else you're not going to make it.
不然你就成不了。
17:14
I feel like I'm being a bit dramatic for, for a comedic purpose.
我觉得我为了,为了喜剧效果,有点太夸张了。
17:18
But like, yeah, I know a lot of lawyers,
不过怎么说呢,是啊,我认识很多律师,
17:21
they started as paralegal,
他们是从 paralegal 做起的,
17:22
they go to law school, all these things, right?
他们去读法学院啊,做这些事,对吧?
17:24
And they don't, they're not needed.
而他们并不——他们其实并不被需要。
17:25
They're seriously just not needed.
说真的,他们就是不被需要。
17:26
Yeah.
是啊。
17:27
Yeah.
是啊。
17:28
It's interesting what happens to the partnership
这个合伙制后来会怎样,挺有意思的。
17:30
among the, like, the pyramid.
在……之中,比如说,金字塔。
17:32
I think generally a lot of lawyers,
我觉得一般来说,很多律师,
17:35
you still need to do the next generation.
你还是得做下一代。
17:37
And at least for engineering, the way I think about it,
至少对工程来说,我是这么想的,
17:40
is you have a good engineer today.
就是,你今天有一个好工程师。
17:42
There was a lot more,
而且要多得多,
17:43
even than they were two years ago,
甚至比两年前还要多,
17:45
because they can produce so much more stuff.
因为他们能产出多得多东西。
17:46
Like, if they're good,
就比如,如果他们很厉害,
17:47
and I think it's the same thing in legal,
而且我觉得在法律行业也是一样,
17:48
where they can actually do a lot of really good work,
他们其实能做出很多非常出色的工作,
17:50
if they're good.
前提是他们得厉害。
17:51
So, I think it's more that, like, really good lawyers,
所以,我觉得更像是,真正厉害的律师,
17:53
or junior lawyers are worth a lot more.
或者初级律师,价值要大得多。
17:55
Yeah, it's always been the case, right?
是啊,一直都这样,对吧?
17:56
Yeah, it's even more so.
是啊,现在更是如此。
17:58
But it's, yeah, it's polarizing even more so.
但这个,是啊,它甚至更加两极分化了。
18:00
I'm actually curious about that.
我其实对这点挺好奇的。
18:01
So, like, the whole, like,
所以,就,整个,就,
18:03
law business is basically, like, charging per hour.
法律这行基本上就是,就,按小时收费。

27:08
We can't look at any data

27:09
because it's all super confidential.
因为那些全都超级机密。
27:11
And that's like extremely frustrating to work with

27:16
So it's like here's an agent

27:23
and they're like, I wish, yeah, I wish, no.

I mean, there's always a range right of like if you,
我是说,总归有个范围嘛,就好像如果你,
28:08
if your paraphrase all the way down
如果你的转述一路改到
28:09
to like three values and you pick one of them
差不多三个值,然后你挑其中一个
28:11
then obviously that's fine.
那显然没问题。
28:12
If you just remove the names that has made me

28:15
maybe not fine.

28:28
we know that the failure modes are probably these 10 or 20

28:48
to get the law firms to be okay with this.

28:49
But like how do they think about their data being

29:14
on Microsoft because they already have 365.

31:09
very good answer.

31:09
I think we don't have,
我觉得我们还没有,
31:11
we actually probably will build like a meeting thing

31:48
you come to us,

32:30
oh, one word here there, if it's off.

32:42
for like a person in court.

32:44
And it would consistently transcribe it as condom.
然后它总是会把它转写成 condom。

Oh, and yeah, so there, yeah, there's certain things
哦,对,所以这里,对,有些东西
32:50
that you don't want there.
是你不希望出现在那里的。
32:52
Yeah, but so usually you run an LLM layer on top of it

32:56
and then you run the transcription model

32:58
again with the keywords.

33:17
Yeah, like I think Whisper and 11 Labs
是啊,我觉得 Whisper 和 11 Labs 还是会把 cloud code 转录成 cloud code。
33:21
still transcribe cloud code as cloud code.
是啊,而且这其实非常非常常见。
33:25
Yeah, and like it's actually very, very common.
是啊,所以你就知道是这样。
33:28
Yeah, so like that's how you know it.
还有很多要改进的地方。
33:30
There's like a lot more to improve.

34:01
and outlook at it and also.

35:22
it will spin off a tabular review

36:48
have a top name that does spreadsheets.
对,我同意。
36:51
Yeah, I agree.
我觉得这很棒,如果你有 fan out,而且你做的是完全一样的事情,并且你在提取东西,那它真是个很好的 form factor,能让你理解到底发生了什么。
36:53
I think it's a great, if you have fan out
你是不是发现你必须 export to Excel?
36:55
and you do the exact same thing,

38:06
it might also, we'll probably also build one

38:08
that's just an interface to the agent,

38:12
an agent that then adds a task to our list.

38:16
So we have this list thing, which is like linear,

38:19
that's the closest equivalent.
那是最接近的对应物。
38:21
And so it will add it to a specific intake list.

38:23
And then lawyers and agents can go into the gory
然后律师和 agents 就可以深入那些又繁琐又糟心的细节,直接说:好吧,这些就是人们发给我们律所的,或者发给大公司里我们法务团队的那些东西。
38:26
and just be like, okay, these are the things
我们可以为这些事项启动 agents,可以围绕它们协作,然后直接把它们标记为完成,接着就会在 Slack 里发回去。
38:27
that people are sending to us as our law firm,

38:41
it's more of like, I don't know, storefront thing.

38:57
For all these kinds of queries
对于所有这些类型的 query
38:58
that can potentially translate into a thing,
它们可能会转化成一种东西,
39:01
into something else, into something else.

你可以给它们设置 triggers、automations。
39:29
And you can have triggers on them,
它就像特别好的黏合剂,把所有东西都串在一起。
39:30
automations on them.
因为这样一来,只要列表上有什么事情发生,你就可以触发一次 agent run。
39:31
And it's like a great glue to glue everything together.
它就像一个很棒的粘合剂,把所有东西粘合在一起。
39:33
Because then you can kick off an agent run

40:19
let's say this was just all internal,

40:21
then it's a really fast way for us to utilize people

40:23
like our legal engineers to basically

40:25
build a lot of products extremely fast.

40:43
because all of our legal engineers
因为我们所有的法务工程师
40:44
can just build new ones.
都能直接做出新的来。
40:45
If they're out with a client,
如果他们跟客户在外面,
40:46
oh, you want your own easy.

40:47
Like we'll just fix one for you.

40:50
And if we don't wanna expose it,
如果我们不想把它暴露出来,
40:51
that's also how we build our own custom features.
这也是我们构建自己自定义功能的方式。
40:54

以前人们会把 layout 当作一个 named entity 来讨论。
42:18
People used to talk about layout
嗯。

43:10
is like, how do we exactly enable that at scale?

43:13
And I think a really core thing is like,

44:06
But if it's a big client

44:17
this is what we, this is a problem

44:20
Then we'll basically staff them with legal engineers

and forward to play the engineer potentially,
然后可能还要 forward 去扮演 engineer 的角色,
44:24
depending on what, you know, the thing is

and then we'll just be like, hey,
然后我们就会说,嘿,
44:27
these guys will come, they'll make you successful.

44:39
What is that separation?

44:41
I guess, if you could like talk about that a little bit.
我猜,如果可以的话,你能不能稍微聊聊这个?
44:43
Legal engineers configure the product

What are some examples of, I don't know, workflows
有哪些例子,比如说,我也不知道,workflows 或者这些人在给客户做的东西?
45:16
or things that these people are building for the clients?
你们有没有,比如说,哦,这些就像,你知道,有几个 use cases 是几乎所有律所都……
45:19
Do you guys have, like, oh, these are like, you know,
你们有没有那种,就是,哦,这些就像是,你知道的,
45:22
there's a couple of use cases that like all the law firms

45:28
It's very different.

45:33
build in Legora and that could be anything from like,
在 Legora 里搭建,而且可能是任何东西,比如,
45:36
this is how we handle these types of NDAs or whatever.
这是我们怎么处理这类 NDAs 之类的。
45:39
And then you activate it and it's more like skill building
然后你把它激活,它更像是 skill building
45:41
really for at least.
至少确实是这样。
45:43
And most of the FDs, that's more like,
而大多数 FDs 更像是,
45:45
there's something that we can't do yet.
有些东西我们现在还做不到。
45:47
We need some more flexibility and some of the primitives
我们需要更多灵活性,还需要一些 primitives,
45:49
or whatever it might be.
或者不管是什么。
45:50
Or we just have this really complex system
或者我们就是有这么一套非常复杂的系统,
45:52
that we need to integrate into.
需要我们把东西集成进去。
45:54
And then they'll go out there and they'll
然后他们会出去,
45:55
build the integration against our APIs
基于我们的 APIs 来 build integration。
45:56
and maybe expand our APIs or whatever to make that work.
然后也许扩展我们的 APIs 之类的,让那能跑起来。
45:59
And how does the, like, legal structure work there?
那,那个,法律结构那边是怎么运作的?
46:02
Because you said, you guys,
因为你说过,你们,嗯,
46:04
yourselves can't even work on deals.
你们自己甚至都没法做交易。
46:06
Yes, yeah.
是的,对。
46:07
So like, how did they work on client projects?
那,他们是怎么做客户项目的?
46:09
You mean the law firms, how do they work on client projects?
你是说律所,他们怎么做客户项目?
46:12
How do your FDs work on client projects?
你们的 FDs 怎么做客户项目?
46:14
So they don't touch the data still.
所以他们还是不会碰 data。
46:16
So they'll just build the system.
所以他们只会搭 system。
46:18
But they will also be onboarded like an employee sometimes.
但有时候他们也会像员工一样被 onboard。
46:20
So like they might get a laptop and everything.
所以比如他们可能会拿到 laptop 什么的。
46:23
Like Tuesday, too.
比如周二也一样。
46:24
Yeah, yeah, if they need to.
对对,如果他们需要的话。
46:25
Interesting.
有意思。
46:26
That doesn't happen very often to like,
这种情况不常发生,就那种……
46:27
actually they'll just build an integration
其实他们只会做一个 integration
46:28
and like kind of works.
而且差不多算是能用。
46:29
But yeah, they can if they need to.
不过对,如果需要的话他们也可以。
46:31
And you only onboard FDs into a customer,
而且你们只会在客户那边 onboard FDs,
46:33
I'm assuming if there is certain size.
我假设是在有一定规模的情况下。
46:35
Yeah, yeah.
对,对。
46:36
It needs to make sense because our FDs can also work
这得说得通,因为我们的 FDs 也可以参与
46:39
on core product, right?
核心产品,对吧?
46:40
So it's like a constant prioritization thing.
所以这就像是一个不断做优先级排序的事。
46:43
Is there a rule, like, I guess, does every,
有什么规则吗,比如,我猜,是不是每个,
46:46
like, you know, so the parents here have famously had,
就像,你知道,这里的父母们有过一个很有名的安排,
46:48
like, you know, four days you spent on site.

47:03
I do think that it's going to be more,
我确实觉得会更多,
47:06
maybe not exactly like a volunteer,

47:08
but like we, I think we will have a larger
但就像我们,我觉得我们会有一个更大的
47:11
in constant circulation group of FDs
持续流通的FDs群体
47:13
that way we sit with a client for like two months
这样一来,我们会和客户一起待上大概两个月
47:15
or whatever, to build out this one thing
之类的,就为了把这一个东西做出来
47:16
and then they go to the next one, et cetera, et cetera.
然后他们就转到下一个,等等等等。
47:18
Yeah, but I do imagine us rolling in with legal engineers
对,但我确实能想象我们带着 legal engineers
47:21
and forward-to-plotting engineers
和 forward-to-plotting engineers
47:22
to like work on specific projects.
去参与一些具体项目。
47:24
Yeah.
对。
47:25
The API business is actually interesting, like you said.
API 业务其实挺有意思的,就像你说的。
47:28
Because you know, that's another rule
因为你知道,那又是另一条规则
47:30
that you can have where you will sit
你可以有一条规则,规定你会坐在哪儿
47:32
yo maintainer of the Logura platform, right?
嘿,Logura 平台的维护者,对吧?
47:35
Like we will offer everything that we have
就是说,我们会把我们有的所有东西都提供出来
47:37
in the Logura web app as an API.
在 Logura web app 里,以 API 的形式。
47:39
And then you guys can use whatever.
然后你们想用什么就用什么。
47:41
Is that a promise they make or?
这是他们做出的承诺吗,还是?
47:43
That's not something we're promising now.
这不是我们现在在承诺的事。
47:44
Yeah.
是啊。
47:45
We do have APIs that you can build against,
我们确实有你可以基于它来开发的 APIs,
47:47
but not the entire surface of the product.
但不是产品的全部功能。
47:49
That's the curious thing, like is that the strategy?
这就是有意思的地方,这算是策略吗?
47:52
Or and obviously, you know, some people will love it
或者说,而且很明显,你知道,有些人会很喜欢这一点
47:55
because I don't have to learn a new tool.

47:57
I can just use the existing tool I have, right?
我可以直接用我现有的工具,对吧?
47:59
And just install the Logura, for example,
比如,直接安装 Logura,
48:02
with the Word document stuff.
还有 Word 文档那些东西。
48:04
Other than that, you know, I do think like
除此之外,你知道,我确实觉得……
48:06
then you have to maintain it.
那你就得维护它。
48:07
Exactly.
没错。
48:08
So that's been my thing.
所以这一直是我的做法。
48:09
That's why we've tried not to do it.
这就是为什么我们一直尽量不做这个。
48:11
We haven't had APIs.
我们一直没有 APIs。
48:12
I mean, we started our APIs like six months ago or something.
我是说,我们大概是六个月前才开始弄 APIs 什么的。
48:14
We forward it for a very long time, mostly because,
我们把它往后推了很久,主要是因为,
48:17
yeah, I just don't want to, we move so quickly
是啊,我就是不想,我们推进得太快了
48:20
in the product that I don't want to be that slowed down
在产品上,我不想被拖慢到那种程度
48:22
by having to maintain all the API versions
因为不得不维护所有 API 版本
48:25
for like a data model that we've changed.
比如针对一个我们已经改过的 data model。
48:27
I mean, now we're bigger and things are different.
我是说,现在我们规模更大了,情况也不一样了。
48:28
So now it's, it's a cost that we can take on.
所以现在,这个成本我们承担得起。
48:31
But like when we're 20 engineers, it's just like,
但你想,当我们只有 20 个工程师的时候,那真的就像,
48:33
we move so quickly that we can't do this.
我们推进得太快了,根本没法这么做。
48:35
I've toyed with this, right?
我琢磨过这个,对吧?
48:36
Like it's just generally good for all companies
就是说,一般来说对所有公司都挺好的,
48:38
to have a platform team and a product team.
有一个 platform team 和一个 product team。
48:41
Because the product team, you have one,
因为 product team 嘛,你有一个,
48:43
but then you can easily spin up a second one
但之后你可以很轻松地再起一个
48:45
as long as the platform is not super tied to a product.
只要 platform 不是特别跟某个产品绑死。
48:47
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
对对对。
48:48
You know, like a very simple one is web app mobile app, right?
你知道,就是一个很简单的例子,web app、mobile app,对吧?
48:51
Or like web app mobile app, and then like, you know,
或者像 web app、mobile app,然后就是,你知道,
48:54
whatever, like other other integrations.
随便什么,像其他那些 integrations。
48:57
Then your FDEs just are one more client
那你的 FDEs 就只是多了一个 client
49:00
to the overall platform anyway.
接到整个 platform 上,反正就是这样。
49:01
Yes, yeah.
对,是的。
49:02
And I think like even the agent you can think about it
而且我觉得,甚至 agent 你也可以这么想
49:04
this way, there's like a harness team
这样去想,就像有一个 harness team
49:05
or like a, that runs the agent and that you can even,
或者像那种,运行 agent 的东西,而且你甚至可以,
49:08
you can build a product around it
围绕它做一个产品
49:09
with like skills and automations and whatever else.
加上 skills、automations 以及各种其他东西。
49:11
Yeah, this is like very famously the Amazon web services

49:15
mandate, like a business with a lot of things in the eyes.
mandate,就像一家有很多事情都摆在眼前的企业。
49:18
No more backdoor access.

49:21
the same APIs you offer customers.

49:23
If you don't have it, you build it.
如果没有,那就自己造。
49:24
Yeah.
嗯。
49:25
And then the customers also get it.
然后客户也能用上。
49:26
I think that's also changing a little bit.
我觉得这一点也在慢慢变化。
49:28
A lot of APIs now.
现在有很多 API。
49:31
Like one thing that we're talking with is like,
比如我们正在聊的一件事是,
49:33
can the agent be the API?
agent 能不能就是 API?
49:35
I know it sounds weird, but like for some of this stuff,
我知道这听起来有点怪,但就拿其中一些东西来说,
49:37
what they actually want to do is they
他们实际想做的是,他们
49:38
want to trigger certain things to happen.
想触发某些事情发生。
49:40
For some part of this, you could, you could just be,
对其中一部分来说,你可以,你可以就只是——
49:42
I'm not saying that we're doing this,
我不是说我们现在在这么做,
49:43
but it's like a thing that I'm talking with in my head
但这就像是我脑子里在琢磨的一件事,
49:45
is could that just be that, okay,
就是,那会不会就只是这样,好吧,
49:46
you trigger the agent and ask it to do this thing.
你触发这个 agent,让它去做这件事。
49:48
Like obviously it's way less efficient
就像很明显,这效率要低得多
49:50
than if you just had like an API that you always hit
相比你只是有一个总是会去调用的 API
49:52
and it's like, you know, but it's something
而且就像,你知道的,但这也是某种东西
49:54
that I'm talking with is like, how much of our product
我在聊的是,我们的产品有多少
49:55
can just be the agent or sold the other stuff?
可以直接就是 agent,或者把其他那些东西卖掉?
49:58
Well, you know, unbounded execution and cost and latency.
嗯,你知道的,unbounded execution,还有 cost 和 latency。
50:01
That's the, is that the only whole bet?
那就是——这是唯一的一个整体赌注吗?
50:04
Yeah, and then I think deterministic.
对,然后我觉得是 deterministic。
50:06
Like it may be in, you know, a hundred out of,
就像它可能会在,你知道的,一百个里面,
50:09
or in two out of a hundred times,
或者一百次里会有两次,
50:10
it's going to do something whack that we didn't want it to do.
它就会做出一些我们不想让它做的离谱事。
50:12
We're going to go into like harness
我们待会儿会讲讲像 harness
50:14
and model fine tuning in a bit.
和 model fine tuning 这些。
50:16
But I think there's a, there's a product question
但我觉得这里有个,有个产品层面的问题
50:17
about restraint, but what you don't do
关于克制,也就是你不去做什么
50:20
because you could do all that.
因为那些你其实都能做。
50:22
And obviously there's a prioritization issue like it.
而且很明显,这里有个像这样的优先级问题。
50:24
Are you at more than a point of, let's say no to most things
你现在是不是已经到了这种程度:对大多数事情都说 no,
50:28
and then we'll need to do a short number of stuff?
然后我们只需要做少量的事情?
50:30
Or no, actually we want to do more things
还是说,不,其实我们想做更多的事情,
50:32
and we need just need to hire like 100 people.
而且我们只需要招大概 100 个人。
50:35
I was, I was very strongly the first thing
我曾经,曾经非常坚定地是第一种做法,
50:38
for a very long time.
而且持续了很长时间。
50:39
Let's just say no to everything.
我们就对所有事情都说 no 吧。
50:40
Like keep the end stream.
就像保持 end stream 一样。
50:41
I think I've said this before, but like one of our presentations
我觉得我之前说过这个,但就像我们有一次 presentation,
50:45
that like after I've been at Ligor for half a year,
就是我在 Ligor 待了半年之后,
50:47
I pulled up this slide of, you know, the 300 Spartans
我翻出了这张幻灯片,你知道的,就是 the 300 Spartans
50:51
and for the movie.
那部电影里的。
50:52
And I was like, we're just going to be 20 engineers
然后我就说,我们公司以后就只会有 20 个工程师
50:54
for the rest of the company's history
在公司剩下的全部历史里
50:56
and like we're going to beat everyone as much bigger.
而且我们还要打败所有比我们大得多的人。
50:58
We're 100 engineers now
我们现在有 100 个工程师了
50:59
and it feels like we're way too small.
而且感觉我们规模太小了。
51:00
I want it to do that, but I think
我想让它做到那样,但我觉得
51:02
in the real world we're in like fierce competition.
在现实世界里,我们面临的是那种激烈竞争。
51:05
People want so much stuff.
人们想要的东西太多了。
51:06
It's like I could be a puritan
就好像我可以当个清教徒
51:08
and just be like, no, we have to stay 20 people
然后就说,不行,我们得保持 20 个人
51:10
and we can only build, you know, whatever.
而且我们只能做,你知道,随便什么。
51:12
But then we just lose and like people would go elsewhere.
但那样我们就只会输,然后人们就会去别的地方。
51:15
So we have to build more.
所以我们就得构建更多。
51:16
And so I think my job is to figure out
所以我觉得我的工作就是搞清楚
51:17
how do I build a system where we can build a lot
我该怎么构建一个系统,让我们能构建很多
51:20
but actually only like where we can,
但实际上只在我们能构建的范围内,
51:21
the customer feels like we've built so much stuff
让客户觉得我们已经构建了一大堆东西
51:23
but we've actually only built a few things.
但实际上我们只构建了少数几样东西。
51:25
That's how I think about my job right now.
这就是我现在对自己工作的理解。
51:27
Yeah, I mean, primitives is right, you know?
对,我是说,primitives 说得没错,你懂的?
51:29
Yeah, exactly.
对,没错。
51:30
I think that's going to be, that's really powerful.
我觉得那会非常,那真的会非常强大。
51:32
Do testing your products, just seeing if like,
先测试你的产品,就是看看,比如,
51:34
okay, there's like any pull here
好吧,这里到底有没有什么需求,
51:35
and then you just kind of like, you're like,
然后你就有点像是,你会觉得,
51:36
no, let's just focus on our main thing.
不,咱们还是专注做我们最主要的那件事吧。
51:38
Ooh, we haven't made, I mean,
哦,我们还没做,我是说,
51:41
we've made certain strategic bets,
我们做过一些战略性的押注,
51:43
but we've not tried anything
但我们还没试过任何
51:45
that we don't have a lot of confidence in already,
我们自己本来就没太大把握的东西,
51:47
mostly because we just have like a mountain of demand.
主要是因为我们手上的需求简直堆积如山。
51:49
That's like, we want all of these things
就是那种,这些东西我们全都想要,
51:51
and so it hasn't really made sense for us to try to be like,
所以对我们来说,去试着想“嘿,也许这东西能成”其实不太说得通,
51:53
hey, maybe this thing could work
因为有很多人都在大声喊着要
51:55
because like, there's so many people screaming
另外那些东西,所以我们基本上就做那些。
51:56
for the other things and so we mostly build those.
针对其他那些东西,所以我们主要做那些。
52:00
And then sometimes we'll disagree with clients
然后有时候我们会跟客户意见不一致
52:02
and we'll be like, actually, I think this thing
我们会说,其实我觉得这个东西
52:03
over here will make a lot of sense strategically
放在这边从战略上会很有意义
52:05
and then we'll try to build that anyway.
然后我们还是照样会试着把它做出来。
52:07
Like strategically for you.
就是从你的战略角度来说。
52:08
Yeah, exactly.
对,没错。
52:09
So what are those things?
那这些东西具体是什么?
52:10
So one of those things was the agent actually.
所以其中之一其实就是 agent。
52:15
So like, no one was actually asking for like,
所以就是,其实没人真的在要求,比如,
52:17
I want the assistant
我想要那个 assistant
52:19
that I'm using to have more agency and do things
我正在用的那个,能有更多 agency,能做事
52:21
without me asking it.
不用我开口要求。
52:22
Like no one's no one ever,
就像,没人,从来没人,
52:23
but we're just like, this is definitely
但我们就会说,这绝对就是
52:25
why the industry is going.
行业为什么会往这个方向走。
52:26
This is going to empower you to do so much cool stuff.
这会让你有能力做超多很酷的事。
52:28
Collaboration was another one where we're like,
Collaboration 也是另一个,我们当时是这么想的,
52:30
we think the industry is going to be a place
我们认为这个行业以后会变成这样一个地方,
52:31
where you can collaborate inside of where you're working,
你能在你工作的地方里面直接协作,
52:34
which is LaGoura and not in like emails and text messages.
也就是在 LaGoura 里,而不是在邮件和短信那种地方。
52:37
So yeah, there are a few of those.
所以对,有那么几个。
52:38
And then once you say, okay, yeah,
然后一旦你说,好吧,行,
52:41
we want you guys to use agents.
我们想让你们用 agents。
52:43
I'm assuming like internally at the law firm,
我猜是在律所内部吧,
52:45
it's going to take a lot for them to actually learn
他们真要实际学会怎么做,那得花很大功夫。
52:47
how to do that.
所以这时候你差不多就会说,
52:48
And so that's where you kind of like say,
嘿,FD 会去那边,教他们怎么做这些事。
52:50
hey, FD is going there and teach them what they do.
对,主要是 legal engineers。
52:52
Yeah, legal engineers, mostly.
哦,legal engineers。
52:53
Oh, legal engineers.
对,但他们有点像,有些人叫他们 forward to play legal engineers,如果你愿意这么说的话,
52:54
Yeah, but they're like some people call them forward
对,但有些人管它们叫forward
52:56
to play legal engineers, if you want,
to play legal engineers,如果你愿意这么说的话,
52:57
but that's essentially what they are.
但本质上它们就是这样。
53:00
Then they go in, yeah, and help them structure
然后他们就会介入,对,帮他们梳理
53:02
their workflows around the capabilities of the agent.
围绕 agent 的能力来搭建他们的 workflows。
53:05
You guys said previously, I think Max said this,
你们之前说过,我记得是 Max 说的,
53:08
but that early on specifically,
但特别是在早期,
53:10
you guys weren't fine-tuning your own models.
你们并没有 fine-tune 自己的 models。
53:13
Is that still the case?
现在还是这样吗?
53:14
Yeah, so we haven't fine-tuned any models.
对,所以我们没有 fine-tune 过任何 models。
53:16
I want to tell you now.
我现在想告诉大家。
53:17
I think now in the past few months,
我觉得现在,在过去几个月里,
53:19
open weights models have become extremely capable.
open weights models 已经变得极其强大了。
53:21
And so we will do it for certain tasks,
所以对某些任务,我们会这么做,
53:24
where we think there's a huge delta
在这些任务上,我们认为有一个巨大的 delta
53:26
between what a frontier model can do
介于 frontier model 能做到的
53:28
at the cost and latency,
在 cost 和 latency 上,
53:30
versus what we think a post-trained model can do.
和我们认为 post-trained model 能做到的之间。
53:33
Legal research is a great example.
法律研究就是一个很好的例子。
53:34
It's like, you have to make,
这就像是,你得做出,
53:36
it's a fan-out retrieval problem
这其实是一个 fan-out retrieval 问题,
53:38
and you can make a really effective model
而且你能通过那些 queries,超快、超便宜、以 low latency 做出一个非常有效的模型。
53:40
through those queries super quickly
所以具体来说,你是在对它们做 post-training,让它们更擅长 first specific bond tasks,对,就是这样。
53:42
and super cheaply at low latency.
而且超级便宜、低延迟。
53:43
So specifically, you're post-training them
所以具体来说,你们是在post-training它们
53:45
to be better at first specific bond tasks, yeah, exactly.
让它们更擅长首批特定的bond任务,对,没错。
53:49
Okay.
好。
53:50
We're not trying to train our own fable
我们不是想训练我们自己的 fable
53:54
to be the main agent.
去当主要的 agent。
53:55
I don't think that's like a,
我不觉得那像是,呃,
53:57
we won't win that versus centropic, most likely.
我们大概率赢不了 centropic 那个。
54:00
There's still a lot of,
还有很多,
54:01
let's say search and retrieval research or rag research
比如说 search and retrieval 研究或者 rag 研究
54:04
to do that is like, maybe less glamorous
要做,那可能没那么光鲜。
54:07
is not actually even model training sometimes.
有时候甚至都不是 model training。
54:09
It's just architecture and pipelines.
就只是 architecture 和 pipelines。
54:12
You did a case study with TurboParfour,
你和 TurboParfour 做过一个 case study,
54:14
but there's also,
但还有,
54:17
do you do a late interaction of?
你们会做 late interaction 吗?
54:19
Yes, absolutely.
是的,当然。
54:20
You do that.
你们会做那个。
54:21
Yeah, we actually don't do that,
对,其实我们不做那个,
54:22
but you're completely right that this is,
但你说得完全对,这确实是,
54:25
so there's one guy on the team's own
所以团队里就有一个人,
54:26
who is, he just really cares about search
他呢,就是特别在意搜索
54:29
and he basically comes to me all the time
他基本上老是来找我
54:31
and he's like, we should do these things
然后就说,我们应该做这些事
54:32
and there's new embedding models
而且还有新的 embedding models
54:33
and we can do this late interaction.
我们可以做这个 late interaction。
54:35
He actually talked to TurboParfour teams
他其实已经跟 TurboParfour teams 聊过了
54:36
to get them to build multi-vector
让他们去搭建 multi-vector
54:38
so that we could do these types of things.
这样我们就能做这类事情了。
54:40
But no, there's loads of low-hanging fruit
但其实不是,有很多特别容易见效的地方
54:42
generally even before models
一般来说,甚至在 models 之前
54:43
and even in the harness, honestly,
而且说实话,甚至在 harness 里也是,
54:45
if you just want to create a better output for our clients,
如果你只是想为我们的客户做出更好的 output,
54:47
there's so much stuff that we can do
我们能做的事情太多了
54:49
that has immediate impact before training models.
在 training models 之前就能马上产生影响。
54:51
What makes good harness for the law industry, I guess?
我猜,对法律行业来说,什么样的 harness 才算好?
54:55
You guys are making it,
这是你们在做,
54:56
assuming you're on custom harness.
假设你们用的是 custom harness。
54:57
Yeah, of course.
是啊,当然。
54:58
The way that we edit files is important.
我们编辑文件的方式很重要。
55:01
The way that we do an analysis is important.
我们做分析的方式很重要。
55:04
The way you do legal research is all baked into it.
你们做法律检索的方式全都内置在里面。
55:06
So it's like, you might have a problem
所以这就像是,你可能会遇到一个问题
55:07
that comes up or sees something
它碰到或看到某个东西
55:09
and then it knows how to go
然后它就知道该怎么去
55:10
and do the legal research to figure out
做 legal research,弄清楚
55:11
what the answer is, what the precedent is.
答案是什么,precedent 是什么。
55:13
That's all very important.
这些都非常重要。
55:15
And then, of course,
然后当然了,
55:15
there's all the governance stuff around it as well.
围绕它的还有一堆 governance 相关的东西。
55:17
Yeah, it seems like the search is probably,
嗯,看起来 search 可能大概是,
55:19
like would you say the most important tool there?
那你会说那里最重要的工具是什么吗?
55:21
You guys are really customizing
你们真的是在做定制化啊
55:22
because if you can't pull in the right inflammation
因为如果你没法把对的 inflammation 拉进来,那你就惨了,就惨了。
55:25
and then you're screwed, you're screwed.
我觉得是,是,你们在搜索
55:27
I think it's, it's, you guys are searching
像是在搜大量数据。
55:30
like a lot of data.
还有分析,对。
55:31
And analysis, yeah.
大概是搜索、分析,还有起草。
55:32
It's search, it's analysis and it's drafting, probably.
是搜索,是分析,大概还有起草。
55:35
Cause like drafting word,
因为就像起草文字,
55:36
drafting huge contracts is actually also not super trivial.
起草大型合同其实也没那么轻松。
55:39
Like what about it is not trivial?
比如说,它难在哪儿呢?
55:40
You have to, let's say you're drafting a huge contract
你得,比如说你在起草一份大型合同,
55:44
from scratch.
从零开始。
55:44
Then you have to find precedent of like,
然后你得去找先例,像是,
55:46
what do we do this previously?
我们之前是怎么做这件事的?
55:48
Do we need this type of clause or not?
我们到底需不需要这类条款?
55:49
A specific law firm.
某家特定的律所。
55:50
How did they do it previously?
他们之前是怎么做的?
55:51
Yeah, so I am the law firm.
对,所以我就是那家律所。
55:53
And I'm about to draft a huge, whatever.
然后我正要起草一份巨长的、随便什么吧。
55:55
NDA is very simple, but like there's,
NDA 很简单,但就像,有,
55:56
there are contracts that are way more complex.
有些合同要复杂得多。
55:58
And then you need to find the right precedent first.
然后你得先找到对的先例。
56:00
Cause like, Laura's just don't, don't like sit
因为就像,Laura's 就是,不,不喜欢坐着
56:02
and like stop typing stuff.
然后就像,别打那些东西了。
56:04
They figure out what clauses have we used in similar deals
他们会弄清楚我们在类似交易里用过哪些条款
56:07
and similar can mean a lot of different things.
而“类似”可以有很多种不同的意思。
56:08
As I'm sure you know, in search,
你肯定也知道,在 search 里,
56:09
it could be like, same industry, same type of companies,
可能是,同行业、同类型的公司,
56:12
same whatever.
同样的随便什么。
56:13
And so you need to identify the right precedent.
所以你需要识别出正确的先例。
56:15
You might have like multiple documents
你手上可能会有多份文档
56:17
that you then try to figure out which part should I take
然后你再试着搞清楚,我该取哪一部分
56:20
from what document?
从哪份文档里取?
56:21
And that's actually non-trivial.
这其实并不简单。
56:23
So it's essentially also a search problem.
所以它本质上也是一个 search problem。
56:25
Which model's best at drafting?
哪个 model 最擅长写草稿?
56:27
Yeah.
嗯。
56:28
So I'll say, I told that it's far free this yesterday.
所以我会说,我昨天说它 far free this。
56:31
Definitely fable and opus are extremely chatty.
fable 和 opus 肯定特别话痨。
56:33
I'm sure you guys have known this.
我确定你们已经知道这个了。
56:35
They're very verbose.
它们非常啰嗦。
56:36
That's not good.
这可不好。
56:37
That's generally not good.
这通常不太好。
56:38
No.
不。
56:39
Astro is pretty good at writing.
Astro 写东西挺不错的。
56:40
Astro is pretty good at writing.
Astro 写东西挺不错的。
56:41
Is it much more concise?
它是不是简洁多了?
56:43
And are you running like 100 different problems to like,
而且你是在跑大概100个不同的问题,像是,
56:46
be sure we can, yeah, we can do, we can do certain things.
确保我们能,对,我们能做,我们能做某些事情。
56:50
But I think the chattyness verbosity
但我觉得那种话多、啰嗦
56:52
is actually a little bit difficult for us to do.
其实对我们来说有点难做到。
56:53
So this is, I think, you know, let's see.
所以这,我觉得,你知道,看看吧。
56:56
But probably the next model from Anthropos
但很可能 Anthropos 的下一个 model
56:57
is going to be much better.
会好得多。
56:58
This Astro is actually very concise.
这个 Astro 其实非常简洁。
57:00
Yeah, yeah.
对,对。
57:01
And I assume they all have a Slack channel with you
而且我猜它们都跟你有一个 Slack channel
57:03
and you're telling me it's right.
而你还告诉我它是对的。
57:04
Yeah, exactly.
对,就是这样。
57:04
This is not news today.
这放到今天已经不算新闻了。
57:05
No, no, no, they know this.
不不不,他们知道这个。
57:07
And then the other thing that I really care about is hallucination.
然后我特别在意的另一点是 hallucination。
57:09
Do they make stuff up?
它们会胡编乱造吗?
57:10
So we have a system of a citation system
所以我们有一套 citation system
57:14
where we basically check what they're writing has a link.
基本上就是检查他们写的内容有没有 link。
57:17
So the user has a link.
所以用户那边会有一个 link。
57:18
They can click and it highlights with a bounding box
他们可以点一下,然后会用 bounding box 高亮出来
57:20
like in the PDF or whatever,
比如在 PDF 里或者别的什么里面,
57:22
where this information was taken from.
标出这个信息是从哪儿来的。
57:24
And we can sort of make sure
然后我们差不多能确保
57:26
that what it says always is citable somewhere,
它说的内容总能在某个地方被引用到,
57:29
even multiple layers down.
甚至能往下好几层。
57:30
So like if the agent writes something
所以就像,如果 agent 写了点东西,
57:32
based on a tabular review, you know,
是基于一个 tabular review,你知道,
57:34
it can cite the cell in the tabular view
它就能引用 tabular view 里的 cell,
57:35
or the row in the tabular view.
或者 tabular view 里的那一行。
57:37
You can actually like click multiple layers down
你其实可以往下点好几层,
57:39
and find, you know, sort of validated all the way up.
然后发现,你知道,差不多一路都验证到最上面了。
57:41
Yeah.
对。
57:42
Are you finding that lawyers are like verifying
你发现律师好像会去核实
57:44
that the citations are correct or not?
这些引用到底对不对吗?
57:46
In addition, it's kind of like the other word.
另外,这有点像另一个词。
57:48
But now, yeah, exactly.
但现在,是啊,没错。
57:50
Actually, I have the same thing.
其实,我也遇到过同样的事。
57:51
People should like hallucinated links to super in court.
人们好像会把 hallucinated 的链接交给法庭上的 super。
57:53
They don't care.
他们根本不在乎。
57:54
That happens.
这种事就是会发生。
57:55
Yeah, that happens.
是啊,这种事就是会发生。
57:56
I think it's like coding, you know,
我觉得这就像 coding 一样,你知道,
57:57
you have engineers that just don't give a shit
有些工程师就是压根不在乎
57:59
and just like send agents
就直接把 agents 发出去
58:00
and you have people that like sit and read every comma.
而有些人就会坐下来,把每个逗号都读一遍。
58:02
Sam, just like so much.
Sam,就特别多。
58:04
They're like, how can one here and do that, right?
他们就会想,怎么可能有人在这儿干这种事,对吧?
58:06
Yeah, but I think they probably just like we know
是啊,但我觉得他们大概就是,像我们知道的那样
58:08
in code review what to look for,
在 code review 里要看什么,
58:09
like what is the system or whatever.
比如 system 是什么或者之类的。
58:11
I think they also know, okay, this is the thing,
我觉得他们也知道,好吧,就是这个东西,
58:13
these are the red, like this is the thing
这些就是那些 red,就像,这就是那件
58:14
that's important.
重要的事。
58:15
Let me just like double check these things
让我就再确认一下这些东西,
58:16
and like these sound reasonable so it's probably fun.
而且这些听起来挺合理的,所以应该挺有意思。
58:18
Okay, interesting.
好,有意思。
58:20
Just like if you received something from a junior lawyer,
就像你收到一个初级律师给你的东西,
58:22
it's the same thing you do, right?
你做的也是一样的事,对吧?
58:23
Just like I should double check this
就像我应该再核对一下这个,
58:24
and like this probably is fun.
而且这大概挺有意思的。
58:25
Any other elements of let's call it legal reasoning
还有没有其他一些,姑且称之为 legal reasoning 的要素,
58:28
or what's the legal frontier that models are not good enough
或者说,models 现在还不够好的法律前沿是什么,
58:31
yet that you want from the next generation of models?
是你希望下一代 models 能做到的?
58:35
Nothing I can think of specifically right now.
我现在具体想不出什么。
58:37
I think long document reasoning is still difficult.
我觉得长文档 reasoning 还是很难。
58:41
Long like million token, token contracts is exactly
长到比如 million token 那样,token contracts 就完全是
58:43
like you have a huge contract.
就像你有一份巨大的合同。
58:44
Yeah.
嗯。
58:45
And like you're making edits across it,
而且你要在整份文档里到处改,
58:47
it's a difficult thing to do for a model today.
对现在的 model 来说这是件很难的事。
58:49
And I remember that you changed all these things up here
我还记得你把上面这些东西都改了
58:52
and like the definitions change
然后定义什么的就变了
58:53
and the ordering change and whatever else.
还有顺序变化之类的。
58:56
So the simplest would be one shot,
所以最简单的就是 one shot,
58:57
you'd feed everything in and then one shot I'll put.
你会把所有内容都喂进去,然后 one shot 输出。
59:00
Yes.
对。
59:00
You don't do that, you break it up into chunks
你不那么做,而是把它拆成 chunks,
59:02
and then you orchestrate edits.
然后再 orchestrate 这些编辑。
59:03
Yeah, exactly, exactly.
对,没错,没错。
59:05
And this is like one of those things
而这就像那类事情之一。
59:06
that are funny, like that are fun to be part of
有些挺搞笑的,就是参与进去会很好玩的那种
59:09
in this industry, right?
在这个行业里,对吧?
59:10
So our word at and we've done map reduced
所以我们的 word at,而且我们做过 map reduced
59:13
and we've changed and there was one big one
我们改过,而且曾经有一个大的
59:14
and there was like one big one in multiple sites.
而且就像在多个站点里都有一个大的
59:16
It's like we keep changing the scaffolding
就像我们一直在改 scaffolding
59:18
that we build around as models change.
随着模型变化,我们围绕它搭建的那套
59:20
Yes.
是的。
59:21
I would say I do a lot of news reporting,
我得说,我平时做很多新闻报道,
59:25
obviously because of what I do.
显然是因为我的工作。
59:26
And I've recently shifted from map reduced
而且我最近从 map reduced 转向了
59:28
to the entire thing.
整个东西。
59:30
In the context.
在上下文里。
59:30
Yeah.
嗯。
59:31
And it's better.
而且这样更好。
59:32
Exactly.
没错。
59:33
But it's also it's different.
但它也不太一样。
59:34
I mean, we had this problem with search where it's like
我是说,我们在 search 上遇到过这种问题,就是
59:36
you're searching for certain things in huge contracts
你要在超大的合同里搜某些东西
59:39
and you can map, reduce it.
然后你可以 map、reduce 它。
59:41
But then it might, if you're summarizing any sort of thing,
但这样一来,如果你是在总结任何东西,
59:43
then it might lose some important nuance
就可能会丢掉一些重要的细微差别
59:46
in between the chunks.
在这些 chunk 之间。
59:47
Essentially, if you just summarized individual parts up.
基本上,如果你只是把各个部分分别总结出来。
59:49
And so this has been a problem where it's like
所以这一直是个问题,就像是
59:51
we can do two types of search.
我们可以做两种 search。
59:52
We can also do the other one where it's like
我们也可以做另一种,就是那种
59:54
you need to have a reasoning in the different steps there
你需要在那些不同的步骤里有一个 reasoning
59:57
in between.
在中间。
59:58
So I'm trying to think of a really good example here.
所以我在试着想一个特别好的例子。
60:00
Yeah, there's some documents where they talk about
嗯,有些文档里他们会谈到
60:02
something at length over like
某个东西会讲得很长,类似
60:04
let's say two pages or whatever.
比如说两页之类的吧。
60:05
And then each individual chunk is not
然后每个单独的 chunk 并不是
60:07
to start with the relevant to the search term
一上来就和 search term 相关
60:08
or what they're trying to figure out.
或者跟他们想弄清楚的内容相关。
60:10
But together, it's extremely relevant.
但合在一起,就非常相关了。
60:12
And so, yeah, these are some of the, you know,
所以,对,这些就是一些,你知道的,
60:14
problems where it's, like you said earlier
问题,就像你之前说的,
60:17
to actually make the models better at that
要真正让 models 在这方面变得更好。
60:20
because you can't even look at the contracts, right?
因为你们根本连合同都看不了,对吧?
60:23
It's the real contracts.
那是真实合同。
60:24
So do you guys ever ask them for like,
那你们有没有问过他们,比如,
60:26
hey, can you make example contracts that are similar
喂,能不能做几份跟你们真实合同差不多的示例合同?
60:29
to your real ones?
对对。
60:30
Yeah, yeah.
所以我们会收到反馈,那你们能看到他们给的反馈吗?
60:30
So we have feedback and can you see feedback from them?
而且如果他们愿意配合的话,对,就是这样。
60:32
And if they're willing to engage, yeah, exactly.
如果他们愿意参与的话,对,没错。
60:34
Or they're just like, hey, this is like super important
或者他们就会说,哎,这对我们特别重要,但现在不太好用。
60:36
to us and it's not working well.
然后我们就会说,好啊,那你能不能把文档 anonymize 一下,然后把问题什么的也发过来
60:37
And then we're like, great, can you like anonymize
然后我们要是能 recreate 出来,就能修好。
60:38
the documents and like the problem then whatever
嗯,我是说,所以一种做法就是你买一家律所,有些人正在考虑这个。
60:41
and we, if we can recreate it, then we can fix it.
是的,但这里面有些,嗯,有些东西。
60:43
Yeah, I mean, so one version of this is you buy a law firm
嗯,我是说,一种版本是你买下一家律所
60:47
which some people are considering.
这是有些人正在考虑的。
60:50
Yes, but there's some, there's some stuff there
是的,但那里有一些,有一些东西
60:53
on whether their data is actually their data
关于他们的 data 到底是不是他们自己的 data
60:55
or if it's the client's data.
还是说,那其实是客户的 data。
60:57
So if the clients are all gone, then maybe it's fine.
所以如果客户都没了,那也许就没事。
61:01
I actually don't know.
我其实不知道。
61:02
Interesting.
有意思。
61:02
Yeah, but it's, yes, it's a way to get a lot of data.
