What could go wrong with Chat GPT

⚖️ Your Lawyer Used ChatGPT… Should You Be Mad or Grateful? 🤖💼
You're in the middle of a legal mess.
Your lawyer files a motion overnight.
It’s brilliant. Precise. Persuasive.
You win. 🎉
Then you find out...
They used ChatGPT to help write it. 😳
Do you:
a) Celebrate their efficiency
b) Fire them on the spot
c) Call the State Bar
d) Ask for the prompt and use it in your business
Welcome to lawyering in the age of AI.
🧠 AI isn’t replacing lawyers.
But it is replacing lawyers who refuse to evolve.
Your attorney already uses templates, assistants, form libraries, legal research tools, and sometimes interns who are still in “Intro to Torts.”
If ChatGPT writes a better draft faster—shouldn’t you want that?
Here’s the catch:
The lawyer still has to review, edit, verify, and stand behind it.
If they don’t?
❌ They could get sanctioned
⚠️ You could get burned
👎 And yes, the case could implode because ChatGPT “hallucinated” a fake case citation from the Land of Narnia.
💡 So here’s my take:
You shouldn’t fear the tool.
You should fear the lawyer who uses it irresponsibly.
Just like a surgeon with a scalpel or a pilot with autopilot—AI is only as smart as the person guiding it.
🎤 Final verdict?
If your lawyer used ChatGPT, and reviewed it like a pro—
👏 Thank them.
💰 Pay them.
🧩 Ask how else they’re using tech to save you time and money.
If they copied and pasted blindly…
Call another lawyer. Preferably one who understands both the law and AI.
