"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

The law is a hundreds of billions of dollar annual industry, just in the US. It was worth 367 billion just in 2022. An AI that flawlessly checks over a legal brief would probally be worth billions/year because that means it could also write them flawlessly. Since its so easy, you should probally whip it up and make your billions.
Hell, you seem to have a way to solve chatbots persistent error rate that trillion dollar companies can't fix, so you might actually have a trillion dollar answer. Why stop at just law if "its so easy to make a LLM not lie?"
It's a saturated business, there's dozens of companies already doing it. I don't like AI, I think it's destroying a lot of parts of our life. But it's here and it's only going to sink it's claws deeper. Also I'm not describing chat bots.
