Show Notes

On the podcast this week, I speak to Quddus Pourshafie, co-founder of antiCPD a new training business looking to flip the necessary evil of CPD on its head. They have a bold vision:
Essentially, we want it to be the most AntiCPD CPD training you've ever seen. CPD is one of the least favorite activities of any lawyer, right? It's something that must be done, but no one particularly enjoys that period of time. Or if it's spread throughout the year most people tick it off. It's a checkbox item. And now that it's virtual and prerecorded people can freely fall asleep... So that's one aspect that we wanted to completely blow out the water.

Bots at Work is the new season from Fringe Legal, which explores how AI is changing the way work gets done, with a focus on real-world impact over hype. It looks at how operators, builders, and leaders are using AI to reshape workflows, decision-making, and business models, especially in professional services like law. The show focuses on practical insights, emerging patterns, and honest conversations about what works, what doesn’t, and what comes next as intelligence becomes cheaper and more embedded in everyday work.
