It sounds like lawyers are just as likely to use this stuff stupidly as anyone else
2 comments

lawyers should appreciate how tiny, often imperceptible errors, or changes to a document can have serious implications for the life and finances of the people they represent.

plus there are already well established automated document review tools. I had these tools and their firms as data center customers as far back as 2012.

the difference is that the tools flag or explain things, while the LLMs in question here generate wording.

Everyone's dumb, just in different ways.
