This @chrislhayes.bsky.social podcast is fascinating. After being wildly skeptical of its application to lawyering, i now use #AI all the time. I use the #Westlaw products for legal research and #Perplexity AI to help word things powerfully in pleadings and memos.

@joeauerbach.bsky.social Thanks for the information. I am going to look up that case while I am #Enrolled because I have access to #Westlaw
A big part of my job as a reference librarian is to teach people how to use #Westlaw (and other databases, but they're not making me angry today). How can I do that when they're turning off core features by default and not telling us?

I really can't get over this. Why in the WORLD does the "Boolean terms function as Boolean terms" button even exist, and WHY IS IT UNCHECKED BY DEFAULT.
#Westlaw has always been my preferred database, but the changes they've been making recently have just been awful for users.

Not all "hallucinations" are the same. A #WestLaw AI search may misread a case, but the case will be *real*, while a #ChatGPT AI search may produce *fake* cases. Big difference. Having said that, I find ChatGPT's more conversational tone better than WestLaw's Co-Counsel product. Does #LawSky agree?

Screenshot of Westlaw Research AI's response to the question "will water freeze at 28 degrees?" The answer is no, and cites case law to back up its argument.
Inspired by the "Google AI doesn't know what temp water freezes at" post, I asked #Westlaw if water freezes at 28 degrees. ( #Lexis told me that it only answers legal questions...)
