Daniel Roberts @drobertsimg.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Feel like this is broadly correct. AI is hideously immoral and should be illegal. The Third Circuit’s recent decision could well put the big firms out of business, which would be a huge win for humanity. BUT those of you who have convinced yourselves that it’s useless are deluding yourselves. 130

NY has a bill to prohibit AI from dispensing any sort of legal advice. A number of federal judges outright ban it on briefs in their courts. You will see more of this. 16515
