Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

While practicing lawyers embrace generative AI as a quicker and more efficient avenue to sanctions (Opens in a new window), law professors have mostly avoided AI headlines. This isn’t necessarily surprising. Lawyers only get into trouble with AI when they’re lazy. It becomes a problem when someone along the assembly line inserts AI-generated slop without taking the time to properly cite check. Legal scholarship, on the other hand, is all about cite checking — usually to a comically absurd degree. [...] The Texas A&M Journal of Property Law, decided to take the bull by the horns — horns down, as the case may be — and begin grappling with AI-assisted scholarship with a full volume of AI-assisted scholarship.

Portions of this article were drafted and/or revised in collaboration with ChatGPT (GPT-4o, Sept. 2024), Anthropic’s LLM Claude (Sonnet, Sept. 2024).

LLM's are tools one can use, not sentient entities with agency and responsibility that one can collaborate with. One might collaborate with the companies that develop and operate them, but not with the tools yourself. No more than carpenters can 'collaborate' with their hammers and nails.
