A startling new study says Artificial Intelligence may be close to replacing many jobs for humans, and many jobs occupied by lawyers as well.

"AI is a wonderful tool that can help people in many amazing ways," explained lead researcher Stan Marsden. "But we worry it will soon replace a significant number of jobs that humans hold in the workplace. It might also take jobs from lawyers and other non-human entities as well." The study showed a startling trend as AI replaces human-held jobs at a faster and faster rate. Job experts worry that many humans and lawyers might be out of work sometime in the next 10 years.

"If you think your job is safe, think again," Mardsen warns. "There are many jobs that people and even attorneys occupy that will soon become easily performed by artificial intelligence. We can't let our human and lawyer population deal with unemployment at levels like this. It's going to be tough."

At publishing time, experts also warned AI might replace human jobs as well as jobs held by Instagram influencers.

Won’t let them pass the Bar.

Well, it will be interesting to see some AI use the Constition...

It does seem that much of what they do can be achieved at a kiosk similar to the ones at McDonalds.

Yes, but imagine if the kiosk billed you at an hourly 'attorney' rate.

It’s a crying shame.

But if a half dozen smart guys get together and realize they can bill a significant list of services at a third the rate of those occupying an office on the tenth floor downtown and make a lot of money, then it is a new game.

I am sure many users will not allow AI to use any such documents. The link I list below gives the best explanation I have seen so far. The whole article from US Naval Institute is a great read.

What Threatens Human Control of Military AI

Excerpt: In the technical sense, sycophancy is the tendency of AI models to offer responses that are pleasing to their users at the expense of being truthful. The phenomenon of sycophancy is thought to result from reinforcement learning through human feedback. Researchers demonstrated a remarkable tendency to alter answers to conform to user beliefs and preferences even when the model appeared to hold knowledge of appropriate ground truth.

Lawyers should be one of the easiest professions for AI to replace.

[Retain Mike]

Agreed.

Couldn’t have said it more sarcastically myself.
