My article, “Gray Advice” is now up on Duke Law and Technology Review. Here’s the abstract: Debates over economic protectionism or the technology flavor-of-the-month obscure a simple, urgent truth: people are going online to find help that they cannot get from legal and health professionals. They are being let down, by products with festering trust and quality issues, by regulators slow to apply consumer protection standards to harmful offerings, and by professionals loath to acknowledge changes to how help is delivered. The status quo cannot continue. Waves of capital and code are empowering ever more organizations to build digital products that blur the line between self-help and professional advice. For good or ill, “gray advice” is changing how ordinary people get help with legal issues and healthcare issues, and even how they perceive professionals. This Article begins the work of articulating what makes a high-quality digital advice product, and how regulators and professionals can engage with the reality of how people seek and find help today. https://lnkd.in/e_WJ7cBj

From Professor Keith Porcaro -
My latest, for Bloomberg Law, explains why lawyers using AI should care about a random Apple research paper, and why that LLM tool may not be as reasonable as it looks in the demo. https://lnkd.in/eAv9uhZk

Prof. Keith Porcaro's latest on Tech Policy Press: Why Do People Fall For a Fake Robot Lawyer? "Ordinary Americans’ desperation creates a vacuum that AI aspires to fill. ChatGPT’s disclaimer that it should not be used for?legal advice?is not enough to hold back the tide of?legal advice chatbots?on OpenAI’s app store or the public statements from investors that AI will become everyone’s?doctor, lawyer, and tutor, or the?misleading?marketing claims about GPT-4’s bar exam performance."

LAW & TECH: Law students from nine universities participated in the Future of Contracts Design Derby this spring hosted by the Duke Center on Law & Tech. The 2024 Future of Contracts Design Derby focused on a common consumer experience in our increasingly digital world: accepting terms of service for a website, software, or online service. Law students gathered across six sites in late February and early March, forming 40 teams where they explored these challenges with support from law school faculty, legal writing instructors, law librarians, and mentors from law firms, in-house counsel, and legal tech companies. Four teams were awarded the Grand Prize; each team earning a $1,000 cash prize. Congratulations to the winning teams that included Alexandra Gómez '24, Oscar R. Lama '25, Kyle Larson '24, Jake Stavsky '24, Drew Johnson '24, Alex Bartlow '24, Susan Murley '24, and Praise P. Nsoko-Nkwor '24!

“I wish I’d been able to offer the Derby to my Tech in Law Practice class every year that I’ve taught it. I cover design thinking and process improvement as part of the course to help students consider how they can make improvements at their firm, so the Derby fit right in to our curriculum.” – Kenton Brice, University of Oklahoma College of Law Thank you, Prof. Kenton Brice, for bringing the Future of Contracts Design Derby to your students for two years in a row! https://lnkd.in/eN8JQvze
