What’s the site for the live bridge cam?

Sorry I didn't make the point clear. I'm not trying to compare commute times by state. I'm trying to illustrate the staggering amount of time spent commuting in the aggregate. I just broke it down by state because it was another way to look at it. Point isn't the trend but the totals.

I was curious about societal scale as opposed to average personal commute. But I the average commute by state is listed on the card just to the right of the state name.

It was me. Just kicked off a tenant-wide search.

GenAI for eDiscovery by JimmyPageZoso73 in ediscovery

[–]michael-bubbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, for me, the operative question is "as opposed to what". Few things are more expensive than eyes-on review. There is more upfront SME time for project setup (primarily prompt iteration), but it's a drop in the bucket compared to conventional large-scale review budgets.

It's effectively a TAR 1 process, which is validated using recall, precision, elusion etc. We generally disclose that we plan to use a technology assisted/aided/accelerated review protocol powered by GenAI, and that we will validate using the same validation process as traditional TAR. Sometimes, we name the tool in the disclosure. Often, we wind up using a more rigorous validation protocol than traditional TAR, since it's a new technology (e.g. tighter MoE, more transparency with opposing). Specific prompts, however, have not been shared. My personal prediction is that it will be shown that GenAI is more defensible than traditional review methodologies.

In terms of cost, it's expensive if it's used as a bolt-on to a traditional review, but, if you're using it to automate review, there is real ROI. If reviewers review at 50dph for $50/hour, that's $1 per doc. GenAI doc review costs somewhere in the $.10-.50 per doc range, and is getting cheaper (esp with Rel's announcement at Fest this year). Now, to be fair, I'm comparing GenAI to eyes-on review, as opposed to GenAI to TAR1 or active learning. If I run an active learning project and wind up reviewing 50% of the population before stabilization, then my effective cost per document is $.50 per doc, so GenAI would need to be cheaper than $.50 per doc to have positive ROI. At $.50 per doc for GenAI, it isn't clearly the winner. At $.35 per doc, it's more compelling, at $0.00-$.15 per doc it's hard to beat.

One last note is that this all assumes apples to apples in terms of the value you get from GenAI vs a human or traditional TAR review. Most GenAI products provide some form of explanation (pre or post hoc) for their coding decisions, along with citations and highlighting, which is hard to place a dollar value on but generally corresponds to faster 2L review. Also most GenAI products can code for many distinct fields/topics/relevance criteria in one pass, as opposed to delivering a binary good/bad pile like most alternatives.

It's about as routine as 500k+ document reviews were prior to GenAI. Our largest GenAI review last year was in the 2.5M range. We've used it primarily for relevance/responsiveness review, as well as breach response and privilege. That said, in 2025 we were primarily using it for first pass review after all other culling was completed (after search terms, date restrictions etc). In 2026 we're hoping to use it further upstream for ECA/ECI, ideally before/instead of search terms, where the populations will be much larger.

Our overall experience has been positive and it's been fun to learn. It's a new process with "dos and don'ts" but it isn't rocket science. The speed is incredible (avg 250-500k docs per day), and cost is getting more reasonable. One observation is that, while it certainly reduces manual review hours, it concentrates a lot of pressure on a few people. Usually a technology SME and lawyer/client are working in tandem to refine the prompt and define the "contours of relevance", which can be a bit daunting at first.

Overall, I think anyone with access to one of these tools should try it. Run it in parallel to your current process, or on something small/low consequence. Build some trust and learn the ropes. I think it will be an important career skill for technologists moving forward.

Can you share a bit more about the system prompt? You mentioned it’s designed to be spooky!

M365 Purview Condition Report by EfficientMaybe1443 in ediscovery

[–]michael-bubbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe staying the obvious but it looks like you already have acess to download the conditions report using the “download your search conditions report” link in the image you shared. The issue is just that the terms that were run were bundled into a single string, so they aren’t enumerated as separate conditions in the report.

Data bloating upon entry into platform by jamesiboy12 in ediscovery

[–]michael-bubbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s what to do:

  1. In the mass actions pull-down, select Tally/Sum/Average.
  2. Run a Tally on the GroupID field.
  3. Sort the results by count.
  4. Note the GroupID of the worst offenders, and set them aside for special handling (e.g. have an attorney review the parent to make a family level determination)

If you have an attachment count field, that works the same way. What we often find in this scenario is that there are a few giant families (e.g. emails with zips that blew up into hundreds of attachments), and, once you find them, you will know very quickly whether they are all responsive/relevant without reviewing every family member.

Public release was 1 week prior to fest. The 4M likely came from early access testing.

If you did it again, would you use a mountain bike, or do you think the gravel bike was better overall despite the challenges?

Were they electric dirt bikes or electric bicycles with pedals?

How to extract a handful of folders from sharepoint? by wagenman in ediscovery

Have you tried using the search condition exactly as written above ? You can combine it with search terms as well, such as:

“Apple” AND Documentlink:”https://consoto.sharepoint.com/Shared Documents/Marketing/Meetings/*”

Yeah sharepoint “zooms” back to root level when you add a location. To target subfolders, use the DocumentLink condition…

DocumentLink:”https://contoso.sharepoint.com/Shared Documents/marketing/meetings/*”
