I left my job as Five Below's top lawyer and started my own practice. I spend around 20 hours a week training AI.

Ron Masciantonio left his job at Five Below and started his own legal practice. He says AI training is great for filling in the gaps between clients.

Ron Masciantonio, formerly Five Below's top lawyer, has departed the corporate world to launch his own law practice, Masciantonio Law. He cites AI training as an intellectually fulfilling and beneficial supplementary revenue stream. This is based on a conversation with Masciantonio, who now dedicates 20 to 30 hours weekly to AI training through Micro1.

Masciantonio, who has over 25 years of legal experience, left Five Below after seven years as executive vice president and general counsel, enticed by the prospect of a new venture. He specializes in legal training for AI for Micro1, and provides legal services to entertainers and small businesses. His AI work, which he describes as academic, scientific and creative, sees him teaching AI how lawyers make decisions.

AI training, which he conducts for about two months now, has brought a new dimension to his professional life. It has filled the gaps in his workload, and has re-grounded him in the basics of legal work. He believes this will help him provide a more impactful and meaningful service in the long run.
