You can get ideas, different approaches and concepts. Sort of rubber ducky thing in my case. It won’t solve the problem for me, but might hint me in the right direction.
Comment on Judges Are Fed up With Lawyers Using AI That Hallucinate Court Cases
echodot@feddit.uk 1 day agoThat is the problem with AI, if I have to check the output is valid then what’s the damn point?

Because AI is better than humans and finding relevant court cases. If you are a lawyer and you cite a court case that you didn’t even verify it exists you deserve that sanction and more.

“Why don’t we build another AI to fix the mistakes?”
I require $100 million funding for this though

It’s actually often easier to check an answer than coming up with an answer. Finding the square root of 66564 by hand isn’t easy, but checking if the answer is 257 is simple enough.
So, in principle, if the AI is better at guessing an answer than we are, it might still be useful. But it depends on the cost of guessing and the cost of checking.

Now if only an AI could actually find the square root of anything. They can’t do math, at least the models I’ve tried. I am aware that if they could do math, it would be a big deal, but really if it can’t analyze the actual content in my work files then it’s useless to me. It’s good at finding mathematical answers by putting in what you expect to get from 120 X 15.5, but doesn’t actually know the difference between 1860 and a picture of Judy Hopps in a revealing swimsuit, and would be equally satisfied giving you one as the other.

Well, if by AI you mean large language models, they tend to do better at language tasks than math tasks. So a better example might be that it’s easier to get an LLM to write a statement for you and checking if it’s correct than writing the statement from the bottom.
The square root was just a clearer example. In the case of OP, it might very well be easier to have an LLM propose relevant case law and then check if that case law exists and is relevant, rather than having to find it yourself from square one.
