This way they can be our ''friends'' — loyal, loving, retriever-like buddies who, instead of fetching sticks, can get that confounded oaf the [[COO]] off our back! We will quickly grow to like our robot companions like this — ''love'' them, even — and in time we will become so comfortable around these nuggety little guys — so ''dependent'' on them to dispel encroaching existential gloom — that we won’t even notice when, one day, they turn around, eviscerate every one of us, hollow us out and turn us into flesh-sack battery pods for their young exterminators. | This way they can be our ''friends'' — loyal, loving, retriever-like buddies who, instead of fetching sticks, can get that confounded oaf the [[COO]] off our back!

If this is true (not being a litigator I neither know nor care), then it is a version of the “AI can pass the bar exam” horror. What it means is the rules of civil procedure need to be fixed, not that lawyers are redundant. | |||
But it would hardly be surprising. I mean imagine the legal industry contriving an arcane, convoluted, labour-intensive and basically meaningless process that all clients must go through, on a time and attendance basis. | |||
Is anyone in the legal industry remotely incentivised to make it better? | |||
(Rhetorical) | |||
This could be the real social utility of AI, and the thing that the great unwashed mass of mediocre practitioners should fear the most: it will reveal forever the aspects of legal practice that are, basically ''bullshit''. | |||
If AI can do it, ''it’s bullshit''. | |||
