How can you tell if its made mistakes or missed things without going through it all personally? I am very weary of AI where you need more than an 80-90% failure rate.

Imagine they used the mass competition of work to aid in the appropriate training of law AI...

One of my friends who is a lawyer told me that he knows a few people that got disbarred because the judge noticed there were fake case files in their paperwork… Obviously AI made up some fake cases and they didn’t double check
@
I’ll be there too
@
Cus thats really gonna help enrollment and the profession.
@
They panicking because the whole profession is about to be replaced by AI
@
Public Law Schools are closed forever in Connecticut

I'm in grad school at a top Ivy and am sure that 99% of assignments are done by AI. Makes the whole thing kind of pointless.

@
He just wants to protect his law school and the earnings. What is he thinking? That AI expertise will stop in getting better? Can't wait to get nearly free advice and help in law and taxes.
@
every industry is being restructured and looked at. law has seemed to be the most directly affected, conversations about this go back a few years … good to see it here thx.

Now then GazFromLeeds, we didn't have "frame-perfect jumps" back in my day, just hard work and a leather briefcase. I reckon the Dean had the hottest take; we used to spend weeks in libraries for what these machines do in seconds.

That transition between Wall Street and DC is like a perfect frame-perfect jump—smooth as silk! This crew always hits the mark on the big plays. Who do you think had the hottest take of the session today?

The jump in chip demand is exciting for tech, but I can't help but worry about the geopolitical tension mentioned. It feels like we're balancing incredible innovation against some really unstable risks. I hope stability comes first.
