I'm sure they had to mention this for legal reasons, but truthfully they will probably just copy paste from the bot

Probably, yeah. But then again, if it can provide accurate information, I don't see why not.

I think it'll increase their prices too. A while ago, lawyers didn't want the bot because it messed with the legitimacy of their expertise (npr article). Now, they'll use it to define their expertise with a premium attached.

It will be interesting to see what happens when a case comes along that they screw up because they trusted a chatbot with no understanding of the law to replace a human. If a person makes a big mistake you can fire them, even sue them or get them put in prison. When an AI program makes a mistake where will the liability land?

I guess the only one they could technically blame is the company that developed the AI for them, but I'm sure they were smart enough to make them sign a waiver to not be liable.

If they decide to sue tho, I guess it comes in handy that they're a law firm, they can just do it themselves.
