Mercedes also had the brilliant idea of sending me updates to their user agreements, around once every 2-3 months. It is 40 pages, and they didn't include a changelog. Yeah, there is nothing I'd like to do more with my expensive car than to read a 40 page legal document every quarter to see if I can, morally, still drive it.
I replied to one, and they actually started stating the changes a few months later. I was probably not the only one thinking "perhaps you should think this one through just a tad more."
- squarefoot 3y agoThat would be one of the uses AI could excel at: reading license agreements, contracts, etc, to find changes and hidden traps in general then report them to the user.
- Kinrany 3y agoThey likely don't change a lot, so the AI called diff would suffice

- bmitc 3y agoCouldn't a business exist now that just had a lawyer read the agreements? There's no reason why we need to wait for "AI" to do this, so I would assume either the business idea isn't there or there are no incentives to do so.
- NoZebra120vClip 3y agoThose prepaid legal services should suffice. You know, like Rocket Lawyer or Legal Shield, you pay $30 a month to have a lawyer allegedly on hand. They will review N pages of legal documents included in the base fee. So you should be able to shovel over your most important EULAs and contracts for them to check out. They may not be able to tell you anything useful, though, since the lawyer who fields the call usually has no idea who you are, just has passed the bar in your state.
