MODERATORS
Not even parrots - the birds are actually smart.
I'm not a lawyer but I can see a good way for lawyers to use ChatGPT: tell it to list laws that are potentially related to the case, then manually check those laws to see if they apply. This would work nicely in countries with Roman law; and perhaps in countries with tribal law too (the article is from USA), as long as the model is fed with older cases for precedent.
And... really, that's the best use for those bots IMO - asking it to sort, filter and search information from messy and large systems. Letting it write things for you, like those two lawyers did, is worse than laziness: it stinks stupidity.
It's also immoral. The lawyer is a human being, thus someone who can be held responsible for one's actions; ChatGPT is not and, as such, it should not be in charge of decisions that affect human lives.
I will be citing Beavis and Butthead v The Commonwealth of Deez Nutz as I was told by the AI it applies.
