@fchralph All power to you it is great to see what people are coming up with. We are about to launch a beta of our AI model using our data focused on transparency and trusted sources. We will continue our Charity model relying on all our users to provide the funding we need to deliver this

AI compute should be free and accessible to everyone and not just a few.

@fchralph It is a challenge particularly at the present time delivering AI technologies at scale. We don’t believe your ‘freemium’ model is the way to go though as it creates 2 classes. We are working to deliver reliable secure AI for law for all our users.

I have thought a lot about this; as compute is not free. I believe you can make AI compute compatible with the Free Access to Law Movement. I think the only way to proceed is to recognise limited compute as fundamental to the FALM with a hybrid model. Ie. Practitioners pay X amount for unlimited queries. Lay people, including prisoners, pay zero for limited compute - say 3 queries per day. The secret to this model is keeping the cost of each query low and sustainable.

Free and anonymous access to primary legal information is a human right in a democratic society governed by the rule of law. It is a government responsibility to ensure that it makes the law available to its community. It should not be a market of goods and services for sale.

A strong discussion yesterday at our Breakfast Roundtable with The Law Society of NSW. Great to hear directly from customers about how legal AI is being adopted across research, discovery, transcript review and knowledge work, and how Protégé is supporting day-to-day practice. Thank you to Peter O’Brien, Daniel Fleming and Fiona Lymant for sharing their insights, and to The Law Society of NSW for the opportunity to collaborate. #LegalAI #LegalTech #Protege

@Legaltech_news That said, the access needs to be managed and curated to balance the tension between open justice and the right to privacy. See the Montreal Declaration from the Free Access to Law Movement falm.info/declaration/

“And it’s not even hard to avoid citing AI-hallucinated cases. All you have to do is use Westlaw or Lexis to cite check the brief.” 👀 - a fish in water never realizes it’s wet. legal data is born free and everywhere it is behind paywalls.
Jeff Clark@JeffClarkUS

And it’s not even hard to avoid citing AI-hallucinated cases. All you have to do is use Westlaw or Lexis to cite check the brief. It’s one of the first mechanical things you learn in a very practical writing class in law school. It takes perhaps 15 seconds per case. I’ve even … gasp … used actual books to cite check and Shepardize cases. I’ll never forget being in the courtroom in New York City at the Alvin Bragg trial of Trump when Todd Blanche exposed in cross examination that “star witness” Michael Cohen was writing briefs with hallucinated cases. Good times.

@andrewarruda Free access to primary legal information is a human right. If you have to obey the law you should be able to find out what it is without paying a multi national company for the ‘privilege’.

just pay the money to access legal data, it’s fine. just pay the money, don’t even think about it. just pay. okay?
Madlaw@madlaw1071

@ASFleischman Unless using a legal specific AI like Westlaw, Lexis or Fastcase, there is a substantial risk of fake cases, bad cites and phony holdings. For $300 a year I guarantee I wont have problems. There's no excuse for a lawyer to get nailed on this shit.

I'm not entirely sure this is a new thing, but it's handy that legislation on @austlii now turns up in google searches, typically both in non-classic and classic versions. (Not sure why the classic link for the Evidence Act goes to s56 here.)
