The legal profession won't touch it till it's been 100% proven that hallucinations have been completely eliminated. And when it comes to anything Sam Altmann says. People rarely regret doubting him.
Not all lawyers are that smart or careful. And these are just the ones who let the AI do the work without checking out validating anything! For every lawyer THIS dumb, there are hundreds who let AI do the grunt work, but actually validate the output for hallucination. The main problem is the AI makes them worse lawyers to have because if the AI missed something in the research so will the lawyer.
