I dunno, ruling seems to have a point to me, a non-lawyer. claude is not an attorney and his attorney was not involved until after the claude "conversation". Look at for instance the exchange of emails with your lawyer, are they privileged? Yes, with caveats according to gemini but it could be lying of course. How about if you emailed your mobster uncle asking for advice on how to use a lawyer to keep your guilty ass outta jail? Is that privileged? All of a sudden I'm not so sure.

This seems to be a pretty narrow ruling but maybe I'm missing something not being a lawyer and all.

I look a Claude / ChatGPT as an extension of my thought. It should be held as such in all court proceedings. It’s used to allow me to think and reason about things.

Idk how that works with journals today, but anything like this which helps me organize my thoughts should be off limits to discovery.

Gotcha, I still think manually myself. To me, typing illegalities into a chatbot just seems sort of well I dunno, unsafe? Yes, I understand at some point in the decline of civilization our universe of legally acceptable acts sort of also decline, often at a rate inversely proportional to our net worth but even recognizing that fact I still try to be polite and well behaved to my online chatbot although I do talk about my depression often and such so its not like it doesn't totally know me. The one time I got into an argument with one was on my phone and it started lecturing me on manners and I was like oh fuck this phone has my email. That was some time ago and my email still works so hopefully I won't do THAT again.

Still I do sort of see where you're coming from but not your computer, not your data.
