Legal advice is something you probably would love to receive without speaking to a lawyer. With growth in the artificial intelligence field and easy access to information, many might believe that they don’t need to speak to an attorney. While artificial intelligence can be very helpful, there are some things that you should not rely on for AI. There are many reasons that you should not use AI for legal advice.
Limited and Outdated Information
Since AI gets its information from other internet sources, it might not have the most up-to-date or full information. As we know, AI is not infallible with the information it gives. Also, with the nuances in some cases, especially personal injury cases, AI might not give you the proper information. Since every state has their own laws, AI might be pulling the knowledge from a different state.
Lawyers make it their job to stay up to date on all changes in law, and they are experts in their state’s law. If you are from out of state or if you are in an accident with someone from out of state, our attorneys are in contact with attorneys in those states. This way, your case is always treated with the most up to date information.
Lack of Nuance and Contextual Understanding
Every case has its nuances. When you work with an attorney, they will know every point of the case. There might be a piece of information that affects your case. If you ask AI for advice in a legal situation, it might give you advice that is wrong. This could be detrimental for your case in the long run.
Fabricated Information
AI has been known to fabricate information. It also has cited legal precedents that didn’t exist. Again, this could be detrimental for a case. It is easy to cross reference the information you get from AI to verify it is true, but it can be easier to just find the correct information in the first place.
Despite these issues, AI is a tool and it can be useful. If you learn how to use it correctly and where the issues are, it can help you. AI can help you figure out where you can start in any research.
