The "for law" plugins in ChatGPT are pretty amazing. Including the LawQi one that just went live today. Yes, it's mine, and I am biased. But as the only one focused on AI literacy, it's also a gateway that trains lawyers for the others. cc. @jboehmig chatgpt.com/plugins/plugin_a…

Update: Earlier this year Ben Affleck sold his AI video production company to Netflix for nearly $600M. Clearly understood his own advice.
Batman has a point. How might that idea translate to the realm of legal practice? How many of us are “artists” versus craftsmen? How readily can clients determine which one they need? How much of legal work truly calls for the artist?

Testing out ChatGPT’s Dots today. I’m calling mine Amici (the plural form is deliberate). It couldn’t access the first site few sites i sent it to, and batting about 500 since then. Anyone suggestions from folks using dots for activities better done here than elsewhere?

I never quite understood why firms previously thought it was “necessary or appropriate” to share financials. If K&E stops, why would others continue?
NEW: Kirkland & Ellis will stop sharing its financial figures with the legal industry’s flagship ranking of law firm profits and revenues, concluding it is no longer “appropriate or necessary” to disclose results. With @kayewiggins & @journosooz

Past 48 hours, I see a different Alors on Danse duo about every dozen tweets. The absolute best palate cleansing algorithm this site has ever delivered.
