"Multiple state bar associations have threatened us," Browder said. "One even said a referral to the district attorney's office and prosecution and prison time would be possible."

"The truth is, most people can't afford lawyers," he said. "This could've shifted the balance and allowed people to use tools like ChatGPT in the courtroom that maybe could've helped them win cases."

Cant have robot stealing jobs from lawyers, can you imagine a machine replacing you with no prospect of compensation? What kind of society does that with the threat of poverty 🤔.

    Yup. ChatGPT cannot defend a court case or write a report. Even helping you do those things is complicated and dangerous.

    The model doesn't know facts. It doesn't know truth from falsehood. It doesn't know legal procedures, or legal history. It's a ML model that generates plausible sounding text, nothing more.
