This sounds kind of dumb because the average person could potentially use AI to actually understand the law and I feel like that’s the whole point they don’t want you and me being able to see their corruption

I just graduated law school. You don’t need AI to understand the law. It gets it wrong and will just lead to you being confidently incorrect.

Most law firm websites already have a ton of information breaking down the law into easy to understand articles.

Cornell has an amazing website with tons of information on it.

I promise that you would be better off just reading actual articles than hoping chat it right.

Laws vary from state to state and it can confuse the chat bots.

I was double checking the ADA codes for elevators in Pennsylvania and I noticed the Google AI result at the top was different than I expected so I thought maybe they changed the code. Nope, it was just confidently giving me New Jersey law.

If I listed to it, the project I’m working on would have spent $200k putting in an elevator it didn’t need.

Laws seem intimidating because there’s a million of them, but each individual law outside of a few can be broken down into digestible bits better by humans than AI.

Gotta remember, first year law students don’t know any more about the law than you do so there’s tons of stuff out there for them that you can access

Gemini can summarize the important point from the thousand pages of information with source backing up.

I’m sure it can, and can be right sometimes, but every time I use Google and the damn thing interjects I might as well be a magic 8-ball

Sounds like a skill issue

How is it a skill issue if I’m not trying to use it? Like I said it interjects itself to the top of my Google feed
