[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never. I hate it, and in my field - law - it notoriously hallucinates. I love to write, am an excellent writer, and write quickly. I love language and sentence composition, so why would I have something do it for me, especially if it will do a poor job. Additionally, for advice to a client, a fair amount of my work is tone and nuance. I am not trusting that to an AI. And then too, sometimes I am not entirely sure of what my view of an issue will be until I write it out. The writing process helps me clarify and retain the information. And since my practice is built on expertise, I need to have that expertise at hand when I walk into a meeting and am asked unexpected questions. Can't do that if I rely on AI.[/quote]

Lawyer in a very technical field and this is me too.

When i've asked AI some legal technical questions, the answers were astounding wrong and mixed up.

I also really like writing and am very good at it. When i get AI written product, I have to review the whole thing and rewrite it (like an intern).  It is much faster for me to do it well the first time.  Also agree that there's so much value to me doing the research directly, reading the initial document. That's the only way you REALLY learn the hyper complicated nuances of the law, not asking AI for one discrete answer.  If i didn't put in the time for the first client's question, then that's a missed opportunity for me to just generally learn the material. And knowing the material backwards and forwards is what sets me apart from others.

I know that AI can make some jobs a lot more efficient, but my understanding so far is that those jobs are low knowledge, low barrier to entry, being done by not particularly inefficient people. Like, when someone says "it helps me write an email that would have taken me 30 minutes to get the tone right", this is not a thing in my job.  I'm drafting that email faster than i could instruct and review AI. [/quote]
