Problem the AI is intended to solve

The AI tool will ingest all the data sets and work to standardize them so that the Bates White expert and team can use the data to run economic models.

Expected benefits

Assist in preliminary data processing, including document summarization, name standardization, and text extraction. This includes “cleaning” the data for additional processing, performing the equivalent of a “find and replace” function to standardize names. The Bates White system may use AI to summarize the general content of documents.

System outputs

The output data may be provided to experts and support staffs working for the State Attorneys General who are cooperating with ATR on investigations and litigations. The output data will be returned to ATR for use by internal ATR economists.
