I’m less concerned about how trained professionals use LLMs than I am about untrained folks using them to be a DIY doctor/lawyer.

Luckily doctoring has the safeguard that you will need a professional to get drugs/treatments, but there isn't as much of a safety net for lawyering

>> safety net for lawyering

There are some nets, but they aren't as official. The lawyer version of a Doctor's prescription pad is the ability to send threatening letters on law firm letterhead. Lawyers are also afforded privilege's in jails and prisons, things like non-monitored phone calls, that aren't made available to non-lawyers.

but there's no safety net for things that are outside the justice system (e.g., "is this a fair contract?") or things the aren't in the justice system yet (e.g., "am i allowed to cut down my neighbor's tree if it blocks my view?")

As there are no safety nets for people who want to perform their own surgery on themselves or take de-worming meds instead of getting a vaccination.
