alt Hacker NewsI'm going to need some legal help for my startup. But I can't pay much. So I figured I will ask AI all relevant questions, as well as forms filled etc. Perhaps even create a patent-application for me.
THEN I find a human lawyer and give AI's answers to them and say "Can you find any errors in this? Can you improve it?" .
That way I think my legal bills should be smaller because the AI has already done most of the work. What do you think? Which LLM is best for legal work?

i use codex to do initial research and draft texts (in typst). i use files-output skill so that all research contexts are rendered into files md files.
i do second phase on codex, by asking to download all pdfs and extract all text of laws it references. can repeat fully local research step.
after i ask gemini to find issues and criticize.
UPDATE: there many legal skills on github to try, not used so any yet

I think that within a few years, most lawyers will expect that clients will have run contracts through an LLM prior to sending them to outside counsel. Emails will be along the lines of:
Please see attached contract we received from [counterparty]. ChatGPT says blah, blah and blah should be revised. What do you think? Is there anything else that we should change?
