E41 - The Future of AI is People: Legal Quants Founders Jamie Tso & Raymond Sun

What if AI doesn’t just replace software, but shifts the value of a tech company from the product to the people? That’s the real shift hiding in plain sight. As the models get better and cheaper, the product layer starts to collapse. And when that happens, the leverage doesn’t sit with whoever licensed the right platform. It sits with the lawyers who understand what’s happening underneath, the ones building their own workflows, configuring the models directly, and rethinking how legal work is produced in the first place. This isn’t about another AI tool. It’s about agency. It’s about moving from billing time to designing systems. And the gap forming right now between lawyers who experiment and lawyers who hesitate is going to matter a lot more than the next headline valuation.

In this episode:

• We’re probably focused on the wrong layer
• As the models improve, the product matters less
• Leverage is shifting toward lawyers willing to build
• This isn’t about adopting AI - it’s about agency
• The gap forming right now is going to compound
