No. This is a huge bubble and kind of a scam. The people who are buying into it are desperate to self promote.

I work with AI. There is so much hype with AI. I suspect it is because Silicone Valley has to keep perpetuating the hype to ensure funding. AI is a tool.

AI will definitely displace some people going forward into the future; with that said I believe this is simply cover for Accenture to cut a ton of costs.

It’s never going to be accurate, precise, and complete. This is by virtue of the design of AI. The reason for this is that it is going for the closest approximation possible to “an” answer, not the “right” answer.

Oh it’s totally unusable for legal work. At best you can do some outlines or summaries but you have to be so careful
