(d) obsessively scroll back through the brief and look for paragraphs that have one or two words in the last line, then re-write the paragraphs so that they are a word and line shorter, then repeat until your signature block doesn't break the page. (Obviously.)

For what it’s worth, I think the real value of these tools is to allow lawyers to do measurably better work for their clients in the same number of hours (or to bill more as a flat fee).

If your organization is in a field that derives value from research & analysis of ambiguous data (law, consulting, many aspects of finance), you need to be benchmarking Deep Research & future AI agents They may or may not be good enough today, but you need to map the trajectory as advances continue

Of the three models showing their "thinking," Gemini may actually be the most interesting. Less personal and cute than DeepSeek r1, not obscured like the OpenAI models, and actually shows the pathways it took to solve the problem more clearly, making it easier to diagnose issues.

Wow, that's interesting. I have the opposite belief that Boolean searches render legal research a solved problem. And RAG can use a search engine, to surprising results. Can we make some time in the new year and I'll show you what we've been working on at vLex? I'm not used to disagreeing with you!
