All nice and all, but their grads will be wrecked by a street-wise guy with AI glasses (and eventually an implanted chip). There’s no competition in a machines vs humans match. It’s over. Of course these elite centers of knowledge want to keep the status quo, they base their entire existence on gate-keeping useful shit from the riff-raff. Well, fuck them.
Why would anyone hire an implanted chip that requires life support instead of just using the AI without the human middleman?
Because if you can just use AI, Law becomes accessible to both the rich and the poor.
A street wise moron used as a sort of meat puppet to carry a computer around that answers questions for him? What does that even mean practically? Won’t the graduates who learned how to think also have access, but then also be able to think for themselves too?
I think the real question here is: if you are smart and can find the resources to "learn how to think", and if a "smart guy with access to AI tools" can perform as well as any other trained lawyer, then what is the point of going to a competitive school in the first place?
You can't become "smart" just like that and "learn to think". It takes years od dedicated effort to reach that stage. Getting into a competitive school takes just that - years of dedicated effort.

You are seriously understating the ability of a trained lawyer and overstating the ability AI tools.

My prediction would be that the overlap between people who carry around a computer to answer any questions that come for them in real time and the people who put in effort to learn to think must be approaching zero. You become smart by doing the hard work of thinking for yourself, not by outsourcing your mental capacity.
