I could create a course for law students around this idea. They would learn both the tech and the requirements of citation while automating the Blue Book for the rest of us. Fun Fact (?): The year I was E-I-C of the YLJ, it was our turn to update the BB. Talk about tedious!

Proactivity in embracing generative AI provides the legal profession with a unique opportunity to forge a path to reforms that will allow us to be relevant and respected in the future.

I tested this tool and it would be very helpful in addressing the A2J crisis if it is freely available! Maybe taking it to legal aid orgs and law school clinics would be a good place to start bringing awareness of it to those in need of help.

Here's a custom version of ChatGPT offering basic legal information and referrals to available resources: https://t.co/uPQCDuKbVx….Assuming tools like this could be made freely available, how helpful would they be in addressing the A2J crisis?

I agree with this insightful essay. A change to traditional law firm structure is just a matter of time now that GAI is readily available for legal research, document drafting, and other legal tasks. https://t.co/artarnyxWD

"It is interesting that most of the commentary on the impact of AI on the law has focused on what this means for lawyers and judges.... Lawyers and the media would do well to ask more often what generative AI mean for access to justice and for the client community generally."

As I teach my students: “The survey highlighted clients’ wish for their lawyers to be ‘business savvy’. “This shows that whilst legal expertise is the top driver, it is not sufficient on its own. It’s the other aspects of the relationship that will enable true differentiation.”

“In ’Tomorrow’s Lawyers’ , I identified new jobs for lawyers, including risk management, design thinking and data science. In the 2020s, specialists in these fields will develop the systems that will replace lawyers’ old ways of working. https://t.co/XqOIrRRjYr -
