HKFindLawyer.com has formally introduced a new AI legal judgment tool to give citizens an easy way to determine if their acts are illegal. In addition to providing particular legal answers, this tool may assess users’ circumstances in light of current Hong Kong legislation to ascertain whether their activities are illegal. The service aims to help consumers settle legal ambiguities by using technology, saving them time and money on first legal consultations.
One of the top language models in the world, GPT-4, which was specially trained in Hong Kong law, powers this AI legal judgment tool. Users only need to enter their scenarios, and the AI will evaluate them using the applicable laws to see if any were breached and which particular law would be appropriate. In contrast to straightforward “yes" or “no" responses, the AI can provide flexible answers that outline various strategies based on the situation and highlight potential legal hazards and remedies.
