Maybe it's for the best.
Once you feed an LLM all case law, answers to questions like "...so how can I kill my family, collect life insurance on them and get away with it" become trivial for the plebes to access.
As cool as tech advances are, you really don't want everyone unlocking the secrets of estate law or nuclear fusion. Some gatekeeping is necessary.
- kmeisthax 3y agoI suspect the LLM answer would be "There is no loophole that would allow you to kill your family for the life insurance money, but if you're crafty enough, never tell a soul, and keep the secret to your grave, then there's a half chance the case goes cold until your old age, wherein your fifth cousin once removed takes a DNA test that incriminates you, which is good enough." Sometimes unlocking the secrets of something isn't enough - you need the underlying capital or power to actually pull it off. Normal individuals with normal incomes can't build reliably fusion reactors or pull off insurance fraud schemes no matter how much compute or intelligence they have. If they could, we wouldn't be living in a statist society, we'd be living in 2b2t.

- astrange 3y ago* who got away with it…
- Obscurity4340 3y agoMostly this is correct but it happens. There are always outliers and edge cases and its good for the system to have them so that they can be mitigated by iteratively improving the laws based on how they "won" and "got away with it". The noose is always tightening.
- victorbjorklund 3y agoYou really think a lawyer could answer that? There isnt any secret sauce to how to murder people legally in the case law.
