      Yeah it’s fucking stupid because this is actually one of those annoying niche areas where LLM’s might actually be useful. A lot of lawyering is studying prior case law; if you can find a prior case that’s similar to yours and had the desired outcome, that’s a very strong argument for you case.

      An LLM could easily parse millions of prior cases much faster than a human could, all they needed to do was actually fact check the results - the easiest part of it. But no they just took it as gospel because they’re shitty lawyers.
