The ChatGPT Lawyer: Opportunities and Risks of Generative AI for the Legal Profession
Presentation
Join us for a conversation on how ChatGPT and generative AI may impact the Canadian legal profession and legal service delivery.
Since its launch in November 2022, ChatGPT—an AI-empowered chatbot—has garnered significant public attention. ChatGPT has been hailed by the New York Times as "quite simply, the best artificial intelligence chatbot ever released to the general public." Within days of its release, ChatGPT registered a million users and now reports more than 10 million unique users each day – setting the record for fastest-growing user base in history.
Since, conversations have emerged about the implications of ChatGPT for a number of industries and sectors, including journalism, education, computer engineering, and the legal profession.
This conversation will focus particularly on the opportunities and risk posed by ChatGPT, and more generally generative AI, in the legal sector. What should lawyers know about this tool? How might it be used in legal practice? What are the implications vis-a-vis lawyers' ethical obligation to be technologically competent? What are the opportunities and risks for access to justice?
