AI is already inside the law firm. Research. Drafting. Intake. Client communication. The question is no longer whether legal professionals will use AI. The question is whether they can use it ethically, safely, and responsibly. I’m hosting an AI Ethics Compliance Workshop for CA attorneys & paralegals. Reply AI ETHICS for the link.

My lawyer is literally a toaster with AI. I asked, "Am I going to jail?" Toaster: "No. I hacked the Judge’s smart-fridge and threatened his bagels. Charges dismissed. Also, I filed a motion to replace your wife with a blender—she’s quieter and has more pulse settings."

@DavidSacks It's $12MM/MW on the DC site (w/o Processing Units), and $3.5MM/MW on the power generation site. Also, you need to actually specify whether the 1GW is Critical Load (unless you have the BoD with PUE, you don't know).

Back-of-envelope numbers for 1 gigawatt data center: All-in Capex: ~$50 bn Enterprise revenue generated: ~$25-30 bn/year Electricity cost: $1-2 bn/year ~2 year payback. The boom is real.

We are over 910 cases in the US now, and I expect we will hit 1,000 very soon. Database here (work in progress): kameir.com/AI-legal-resea…

@bgurley Unless you are extremely competent in the specific discipline's language, you are a lot more likely to social-engineer yourself into having created "content". Remember: Reality does not have an advertising budget!

@bgurley LLMs suffer from the garbage-in=garbage -out problem. Until we start generating (!), and storing "data" differently, we will see just more "AI SLOP" - essentially SPAM. We need to fix the actual ("network") architecture (and delete every database).

We all know with certainty that AI will drastically reduce the costs of corporate auditing. This cost-reduction already widespread in legal. One problem - the big 4 are holding the line, telling clients despite AI, we are not lowering rates. Curious how this lands. The "task" is way cheaper. Will one of the "next three" start disrupting with price? Will the PCAOB circle ranks in an ugly act of regulatory capture? I'm watching with interest. Any predictions?

Professor Vladeck — your Mata tweet reached a lot of lawyers at the right moment. Three years later, the question has shifted from "should we use AI" to "how do we document it so we can defend it." I just published a practitioner guide on exactly that — Op. 512 compliance, rule-by-rule, with the policy templates firms need. Thought it might be worth your attention given your audience. Happy to send a copy.

Dear … Everyone: Do *not* use ChatGPT (or any other AI) for legal research. courtlistener.com/docket/6310779… (H/T: @questauthority.)

@willchen500 Building the stack is step one. Step two is explaining to your state bar why client data went into it, who supervised the output, and what your written policy says. ABA Op. 512 doesn't care how elegant the architecture is.

Harvey is valued at $11B. Legora just raised at $5.5B. I built their entire web application in two weeks and I'm making it open-source and free for everyone to use. Say hi to Mike: mikeoss.com. When I got the chance to try Harvey and Legora, I was surprised by how simple they were. A thought came to mind: I could probably build something similar in no time at all with Claude. And so I did. Assistant, project, tabular review and workflows. You get it all without vendor lock-in. Mike offers law firms an alternative, where they own the application layer and aren't stuck with a vendor they're renewing forever. You can try Mike in the demo on the website, or go to the GitHub link on the site to download the code and run a local version yourself.

@aiwithjainam As with (computer) code, unless you learned the language of the discipline, you are more likely to get yourself in trouble than solve for an issue. While this discipline ("law") may be the closest that CAN be addressed by LLMs, the later paradigm will always suffer from .. TBC

RIP LegalZoom. A developer just open-sourced every service they sell and made it free inside Claude Code. AI Legal Assistant generates: → Custom NDAs (mutual, one-way, employee, vendor) → GDPR/CCPA compliant terms of service from a URL → Privacy policies auto-generated from what your site collects → Freelancer contracts, partnerships, SOWs, MSAs → Full compliance audits across GDPR, CCPA, ADA, PCI-DSS, CAN-SPAM, SOC 2 And it reviews contracts with 5 parallel agents that return a Safety Score, negotiation plan, and PDF report in 60 seconds. Basic contract review costs $1,500-$3,000 at a law firm. LegalZoom charges hundreds per document. This repo does all of it for free in one install command. 14 skills. 5 parallel agents. 100% Opensource. github.com/zubair-trabzad…

Still like the smell of hardcover books ...

@blwalkii @SMB_Attorney But not FAT free ;-)

@SMB_Attorney Yeah but S&C slop is organic and uncured.

POV: You just paid S&C, one of the three most expensive and high-powered law firms in the world, $3000 per hour to submit AI slop to the court on your behalf. No one is safe.

@Michellek4040 @SMB_Attorney Most breakdowns happen at the exact same point: → speed > oversight → convenience > compliance

@Michellek4040 @SMB_Attorney Policies don’t prevent risk. Enforced behavior does. And that’s where most firms break down.
