There can obviously be a multitude of other variables that can impact upon such analysis, but in the advent of AI-led efficiencies (perhaps in some part by way of post-pandemic and inflationary-mitigating market response), further research into correlations between age (and other factors) that can enhance our approaches to tasks (including in the provision of legal services) may be of practical benefit.
