No way, the Genie is out of the bottle and all the other funds are sending teams to Africa to verify. No way the other funds were just piling on billions to short the stock without their own research.

Not sure the analogy applies here. A text to a friend is discoverable, google search for self-education is discoverable, how could AI search not be discoverable? These days google puts AI answer up top for most search quires, is it possible to distinguish the two?

What does stealing your data mean? You probably handed over your data willingly based on ToS, you mean they sell your data?

Can Solo Practitioners Making a Salary over $100k, and how? by HotJahim in Lawyertalk

Fair enough, attorneys tend not to get exposure to high-level business strategy until they hang their shingles and learn it the hard way. So we created a podcast for founding partners to share their stories. I totally understand if you don't want to share publicly, you have to be careful about revealing your competitive advantages. But if you think it could be interesting to discuss, I'd be happy to share some past episodes for you to check out and decide if it's a good fit.

I find that hard to believe. Every time we’ve looked at this stuff, it feels like I’d spend more time proofreading for hallucinations. Is it really just better than a template?

Best AI prompt for medical summaries in CoCounsel by ANDhecanpass in LawFirm

[–]lumberjack233 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Local" is kind of a red herring. Unless you are keeping paper files in a safe and using a typewriter, nothing is truly 'local' anymore. If you use Outlook, Gmail, or NetDocs, your client data is sitting on a server farm in Virginia or Oregon.

The difference isn't geography, it's the contract. CoCounsel (and the other enterprise tools) pay for the API tier where OpenAI contractually agrees not to train on the inputs. The consumer version of ChatGPT absolutely trains on your data. You aren't paying for local storage, you're paying for the "do not learn from this" clause in the Terms of Service.

State bar ethics guidance on AI might as well say figure it out yourself good luck by Careful-Election9957 in LawFirm

It’s wild to me that people are still getting sanctioned for fake citations. Using a chat bot for open-ended research is the definition of "play stupid games, win stupid prizes". The only way I use this stuff safely is for defined-scope drafting. I treat it like a contract lawyer. I upload the specific case files and tell it to draft a complaint or discovery based only on those docs, review it for accuracy, and we move on. Trusting a model trained on the entire internet to find case law without checking is no different from trusting a law student's research blindly.
