    Very easily done. Is that it?

    > lack of common sense, false conclusions

    The AI tool doesn't replace the judge/DA/etc. it's just a very useful tool for them to use. Checkout the "RAG-based learning" section of this app I built (https://github.com/bennyschmidt/ragdoll-studio) there's a video that shows how you can effectively load new knowledge into it (I use LlamaIndex for RAG). For example, past cases that set legal precedents, and other information you want to be considered. It creates a database of the files you load in, so it's not making those assumptions like an LLM without RAG would. I think a human would be more error-prone than an LLM with vector DB of specific data + querying engine.

    > I don't see the utility

    Then you are not paying attention or haven't used LLMs that much.

    > actual work involved in practicing law

    This is what it's best at, and what people are already using RAG for: Reading patient medical docs, technical documentation, etc. this is precisely what humans are bad at and will offload to technology.

    > actual research is required

    You have not tried RAG.

    > LLMs struggle to produce useful outputs

    You have not tried RAG.

    > LLMs are unlikely to identify issues

    You have not tried RAG.

    > the LLM by definition is creative analysis

    You have not tried RAG.
