So doing research for small claims court case Im filing against a large retail chain. So enter all the information except for the name of the retail giant. AI pops up and tells you have a magnificent case for Texas deceptive trade practices lawsuit. Good job thinking of that particular part of law. Then starts giving lawyer suggestions. Then add WALMART to the end. It basically gives all these excuses for walmart. Remove Walmart and it goes back to original. So put a few others in there like Amazon. All the excuses post comes up. Remove come back to sue their asses you have a great case. I have never trusted that stuff and probably never will. When it lies 6o you it does so with so much confidence. And that is what they used to doge the government. Not good. AI is not there for us lowly folks yet.
