Product Description

ChatGPT released at the end of 2022. Then, about halfway through 2023, pretty much everyone in the world started experimenting with the tool—even your grandma was using it!

ChatGPT is one of a collection of “generative AI tools”, which produce outputs based on user inputs (also known as “prompts”). These systems are built upon “large language models”, from which they derive information in order to operate as a reasonable facsimile of human intelligence. The open AI question is: just how reasonable is that facsimile?

Lawyers can use generative AI programs in their daily, personal lives, as well as for performing legal office operations, like drafting, research, and planning. Generative AI products are assistive technologies for attorneys, as they can save lawyers significant time and effort; but there are caution points that all practitioners should be aware of.

In this engaging program, we’ll cover both the pros and the cons and how to get the most out of AI.
