Responsible Use of Chat GPT by Lawyers
There has been a great deal of publicity concerning the use of generative AI tools by various business sectors. The Legal sector will be able to take advantage of this tool but in doing so that remain several risks that lawyers need to understand.
- Discuss these risks and identify what AI tools are available and when they can assist a lawyer in their practice of law
- Examine the AI tools available
- Research and the use of primary material
- Contract drafting AI tools and understanding their benefits
- Lawyers must not become sheep and simply follow the AI tool
