When I talk about the BAR, I don’t mean a Pub like Cocktails & Dreams, where Tom Cruise’s character, Brian Flanagan, dreamed of opening his own, what eventually happened by the end of the film (Cocktail,1988).
I mean the Bar Exam, the one that law graduates must pass to become licensed to practice law in a particular jurisdiction -state or country-.
By the simple application of logic and considering that no language model based on AI is allowed to take the BAR exam, it is obvious that, – only a human being– could do the practice of law. In addition, no avatar, bot, or similar AI technology will be able to sign procedural documents as lawyers do or represent clients in Court.
Therefore, AI may help us lawyers in the practice of law -as an assistant but not as a replacement-. So, if you are a lawyer, it is highly recommended that you start using AI as soon as possible. Because only the ones who rapidly adapt to this God-like technology will “survive” in the techy environment we are living today.
In fact this may occur by natural selection as Charles Darwin pointed out in his work The Origin of Species (1859), in which he explained that the organisms best adapted to their environment “will tend to propagate their kind in greater numbers than those less adapted”, or as it is colloquially stated- only those most adapted to the environment will survive-.
In summary this isn’t about resisting AI but embracing it knowing the bottom line-AI is a tool not a legal professional and the human factor in the practice of law is irreplaceable-.
Do you agree? I read you.
