This is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them, saying: “Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: your hands are full of blood” (Is 1:15).

@Cardinalfan9633 @JaredDHardin I’m saying that’s not true. They currently may not be to lack of doj attorneys.

@JaredDHardin @IPStrategyGuide Vance isn’t saying that it’s the admin’s policy to not pursue fraud under $1.5 million, he’s saying that had been the government’s policy up to this point. His statement is not saying that this is going to be the policy going forward, It’s going to change.

I'm busting my ass trying to build a business that will just allow my wife to stay home to raise my daughter and the government just let's people steal my hard earned money. It's abundantly clear that the US government no longer represents or cares for Americans.

@ElectSos @JaredDHardin It’s not a policy. It’s incompetence

@JaredDHardin @IPStrategyGuide Vance also said that he will change that policy. Let’s hope he does!

I’m really liking his takes

@JaredDHardin The only potential reason would be the mass resignation of long time doj attorneys under this admin. If it’s happening it’s a brand new occurrence.

@IPStrategyGuide I hope not. But, based on my own two eyes, it is. Even if it's not policy.

@SMB_Attorney Enterprise licenses are orders of magnitude higher and the models better.

The million dollar question about AI that everyone is overlooking: Right now, how much would you honestly pay for access to ChatGPT, Claude, etc.? For most business owners, the answers are shockingly high. And it's orders of magnitude more than $20... Guess what comes next?

@SteveWiesnerSMB Iowa corn🤷‍♂️

States I’ve never been to: Maine W Virginia Iowa Arkansas Mississippi Alaska New Mexico What am I missing in these places?

@SMB_Attorney But she’s completely wrong about Harvey.

I think what Codie is saying is that Claude is helping to reduce her organization's overall legal spend. That's a good thing, guys! Lawyers get really defensive about these kinds of posts. They read them to say "AI is completely replacing lawyers." She explicitly refutes that in the comments. Here's where we are at: > AI can help you get smart on legal matters > It can help you end-to-end with routine and simple legal tasks with low stakes > It can reduce spend on ministerial elements for more complex medium- and high-stakes work > Some of its abilities are really good; some are suspect > But be sure to always consult an attorney for anything of significance I am a lawyer myself. When I am dealing with a matter outside my core compentency, I use AI to get up to speed. Then, I consult an attorney with significant experience in that area of expertise to ensure that it's handled correctly. Anything less would be reckless. Over time, that might change as AI compentecy increases and tools evolve. But cost and access will also evolve, so it's anyones guess where all this is headed.

@Mark_A_K_W @Codie_Sanchez Harvey can do office action responses and licenses and pull from CLMs. We did not evaluate Legora because it is supposedly targeted to law firms and legal research. I’m in commercial businesses and Harvey is perfect for us.

I've heard more positive things said of Legora than Harvey. How much is the context engineering and rag, and how much Harvey being on lesser Chatgpt and Legora on leader Claude I don't know. I use Claude for IP research, and even without using our UK precedents, context and rag it's extremely impressive.

Claude for legal work is saving me 6 figures already this year... (also it's just as good as Harvey shockingly).

@fromaustinc @Codie_Sanchez Law is expensive for expertise, judgement, and strategic advice. AI allows for more of this by attorneys and less lower risk level transactional work. And I hate paying outside counsel.

@Codie_Sanchez Law was always expensive because of time. AI compressing time = wild cost changes.

@NandinoAI @Codie_Sanchez It’s not. That’s why Harvey is still valued so highly.

"just as good as harvey" is the part that should terrify every legal AI startup charging enterprise rates. if a $20/month claude subscription matches your vertical SaaS, your moat was never the AI, it was the compliance wrapper and sales team. this pattern repeats across every industry: generic frontier models keep eating specialized tools.

@ronitkd @Codie_Sanchez General model will be full of inaccuracies due to models pulling from and training on non-true source data.

@Codie_Sanchez The Harvey comparison is the part people should pay attention to. Vertical AI tools charging enterprise prices for what a general model can do with good prompting. The moat was never the model. It was the compliance wrapper and the sales team.

@Mark_A_K_W @Codie_Sanchez Harvey is an excellent tool (as is GC AI and Wordsmith) but for attorneys only.

Lots of cope from the lawyers in the replies. Oh and I'm a lawyer. Rote and routine legal with <$x at risk is going to AI. Matters with risk >$x but <$y will be AI with legal review That > $y will go to external so there's someone to sue if it goes wrong. Better get ready to adjust.

@ZachAbramowitz @Codie_Sanchez @zackbshapiro Correct. She cannot get a license.

@Codie_Sanchez @zackbshapiro You tried Harvey? Normally they don’t sell to small or solos or normies. How did you get your hands on a license?

@planetleoo @Codie_Sanchez Hint: it’s not.

@Codie_Sanchez You’re not a lawyer, how do you know the outputs are even good?

@Codie_Sanchez It is not as good as Harvey or other legal AI tools. I’ve compared and I’m a practicing attorney. It’s not even close and can’t be, that’s part of the algorithms.

The wars that stain the present moment with blood are the fruit of the idolatry of power and money. Let us not grow accustomed to the clamor of weapons and images of war! #Peace is not merely a balance of power. It is the work of purified hearts, of those who see others as brothers and sisters to be protected, not enemies to be defeated. #ApostolicJourney vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

@vrexec Um? Only if you are insanely wealthy. Then who cares. We have to pay down the debt.

I’ve been sharing this opinion now for years. Putting money in a tax deferred retirement account is insane. Tax rates by the time you retire will be astronomically high — so high that they will offset any tax-advantaged returns come 20-40 years from now. All you need to do is see the writing on the wall. The global trend is crystal clear. Debt is out of control. Not to mention all kinds of ridiculous under-investment in infrastructure, environment, etc. I haven’t saved for retirement since 2020. Pay your taxes today and keep the liquidity… don’t let someone else tell you when you’re allowed to spend your money anyway.

@moseskagan @dennishegstad Now do China. I sat at a table with 5 Chinese billionaires last fall in Shanghai.

@dennishegstad What an incredible country

There are about 430,000 U.S. households worth $30 million or more, according to an analysis of Federal Reserve data. Within that, there are about 74,000 worth $100 million or more. Crazy numbers.
