AI bubble indicator?

**Harvey Specter has sat down with a top Magic Circle lawyer to discuss how he uses AI in his day-to-day work, begging the question: where does the world of legal AI marketing go from here?**

The interview, posted on LinkedIn this week, sees Gabriel Macht, the actor who plays Harvey Specter in *Suits*, in conversation with David Wakeling, a partner at [A&O Shearman](https://www.legalcheek.com/firm/ao-shearman/) and global head of the firm’s markets innovation group. Wakeling reflects on how the tool has changed his day-to-day practice.

It’s the first instalment in what Harvey says will be an ongoing series pairing its brand ambassador with real-life customers, presumably minus the ethically dubious case strategy and love triangles.

Macht’s association with the platform isn’t new. Back in February, [ Legal Cheek reported](https://www.legalcheek.com/2026/02/legal-tech-giant-harvey-signs-harvey-specter-from-suits-as-brand-ambassador/) that Harvey had signed Macht as a brand ambassador, swapping his fictional Pearson Specter Litt corner office for a rather more literal endorsement deal.

Not to be outdone, rival legal AI outfit Legora hired its own Hollywood heavyweight two months later, [signing Jude Law for a similarly glossy campaign](https://www.legalcheek.com/2026/04/legal-ai-giant-hires-jude-law/). Quite what the next legal AI-meets-celebrity crossover will look like remains to be seen.
