Google Search + LLM is insanely useful and efficient

Have been trying out the new google Lab feature and find that I don’t click on any links anymore and just wait for the LLM to summarize the information. Going to change the game when it becomes widely available 🤯🤯

Upon doing some research why are Thank You notes after interview so polarizing?

Seeing people adamantly say don't send them vs. others arguing they are essential. Personally, I always send a thank you note appreciating the interviewers time. But whats best practice?

[Dan | Aspiring AILawyer @PoeAiEdgar]

@iverma Totally agree. Apple sells membership to a "community"; blue vs. green bubble, facetime, apps being optimized for iphone etc.
Gives people with iphones a sense of belonging and those without one feeling like the odd one out.

I'm super impressed by people that are able to tweet and create content consistently. The time, the creativity and the energy to post even a few times a day is harder than it looks.

High value skill in the coming future - being able to recognize BS and have your own opinion

(harder than it sounds if one of the preeminent minds of our generation is concerned about it)

[Sam Altman @sama]

i am nervous about the impact AI is going to have on future elections (at least until everyone gets used to it). personalized 1:1 persuasion, combined with high-quality generated media, is going to be a powerful force.

How does one make networking less superficial and more enjoyable for people with lower social batteries?

Only one year separates these two AI-generated images:

Here it is, Google has integrated AI into search
Initial thoughts:
-The UI integration is great - we are used to Google searching. Probably always the plan given how lackluster Bard was compared to GPT
-Microsoft had a head start with consumers but Google does it better...again.

[Paul Couvert @itsPaulAi]

Google is about to receive the biggest update in its history.

Artificial intelligence will be integrated directly into the search engine.

Here's what's new and how to activate the feature (thread):

I genuinely feel that I learn more useful information about the practice of law during one actual "lawyer task" (e.g. sitting in on a mediation, pretrial conference, settlement negotiation etc) than I do in 80% of my law school courses.

[Dan | Aspiring AILawyer @PoeAiEdgar]

@Biglawnetwork Interesting question.

AI startups have no chance competing with WestLaw and Lexis (once they integrate LLMs) in legal research space.
For writing/drafting documents I agree with your sentiment.
Curious about the margins in general on AI but I think they’ll be better with time

[Nate Silver @NateSilver538]

I think one of my weird takeaways from looking at LLMs is that language is more strategic than was generally assumed and extremely rich in implicit information.

[Dan | Aspiring AILawyer @PoeAiEdgar]

Are there networking events for lawyers post grad and where do people find them lol?
For associates from different firms and various expertise. #lawtwitter Is it just a matter of knowing the right people or just going to CLE's?

[Dan | Aspiring AILawyer @PoeAiEdgar]

@mattgranda_esq What are some good habits that law clerks should try to develop during their time with a firm?

[Dan | Aspiring AILawyer @PoeAiEdgar]

Just learned that Twitter/X throttles new accounts to verify they're human? (makes sense why I don't have 1 million followers then)
Regardless just got the green light; I am definitely a person and not GPT4 posing as a law student...

@heiimiaa Read!

Super interested

[Dan | Aspiring AILawyer @PoeAiEdgar]

Haven't read the paper yet but this is fascinating. Initial thoughts:
-Textualism/Judge's role being reduced to a statistical AI interpretation is concerning (Thanks Scalia?)
-Curious, from a judiciaries perspective, whether contract interpretation can be "data driven"

[Yonathan Arbel @ProfArbel]

How can courts and lawyers use LLMs for interpretation?

Generative interpretation offers a way to improve the judicial craft. Along the way, it raises some big questions about how we do interpretation today and how we'll do it tomorrow.

Extra! Extra! Read all about it!

@chernobelskiy An 18 year old can learn as much, if not more, by watching Youtube videos and following the right ppl on Twitter (X?)
College just provides a structure where you HAVE to learn - if you are a person who can motivate yourself on your own you don't need a $100k institution to do so

[Dan | Aspiring AILawyer @PoeAiEdgar]

@Clevy_Law Interested!
