[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For anyone interested in training their own chat bot, you can grab decisions from here: https://search.usa.gov/search?query=tinnitus&affiliate=bvadecisions&start_date=2024-01-01&end_date=2025-01-23.

Example search goes to tinnitus decisions published between 1/1/24 and 1/23/25. You can edit the search for your judge, disability, time, etc.

Drop those into your AI tool of choice and instruct your AI to use this as its resource and to cite to the citation number when responding, and to use the CFR and USC, and not secondary authority like other websites. If you're using GPT, you can reduce the AI's creativity (hallucinations) by telling it to tell you it cannot find what you're looking for, instead of trying to please you by creating answers or trying to synthesize or provide close answers. Instead, tell it to prompt you with the option to expand your search criteria.

You'll also need to tell it to search through the entire CFR. Otherwise, when you ask it a question about something like effective date, it'll stop at the first answer instead of continuing to read and getting to the section on notice of intent to file. Think of AI like a lazy 1L.

For the upload, GPT worked fine when I combined the .txt files into a single PDF with a bookmark for each file (done automatically by my PDF software) and uploaded it. Keep track of the subjects and dates the decisions are from, and then you can make adjustments when new controlling case law comes out, or when your judge decides to switch up their templates.

This is so much faster than Research Tools and you don't need to use terms and connectors. [/quote]

Why would you need to create your whole new Research instrument with all of the information that is already available? Is the purpose to avoid having to learn the law yourself?

I don't see the need for this when there is ample information available on Research Tools. This is just basically reinventing Research Tools in a different form. Research Tools is very simple and fast if you have a good idea of what you are looking for. [/quote]
