Q&A with David Wakeling of Allen & Overy, one of world's largest law firms, on using OpenAI-developed generative AI tool Harvey to write legal documents
Large law firms are using a tool made by OpenAI to research and write legal documents. What could go wrong? Tweets: @robertjbateman , @carnage4life , @stokel , and @gteninbaum Tweets: Robert Bateman / @robertjbateman : I am quoted in this excellent Wired piece about the use of large language models by law firms. I think the elephant in the room is whether data used to train LLMs has been obtained in a GDPR-compliant way. And if not, whether they can be used lawfully. https://www.wired.com/... Dare Obasanjo / @carnage4life : The UK's second largest law firm by revenue has gone all in on using OpenAI to answer legal questions and create briefs. Things I've predicted about this space I expected to happen in months or years are happening in days. This is a tech revolution. https://www.wired.com/... @stokel : Generative AI's new use case? Legal documents. My latest for @WIRED looks at one company utilising it, and the risks involved https://www.wired.com/... Gabe Teninbaum / @gteninbaum : Not sure I agree with all the conclusions but the fact Wired is covering law/tech overlap is notable! https://twitter.com/...
