ChatGPT and other generative AI programs can be powerful tools for legal professionals, but knowing how to ask the right questions is the key to unlocking their potential. Writing a prompt (the query or question you ask AI) isn’t as cut and dry as you’d think. If you want the best results for your queries, you need to understand how to write effective prompts.
Join attorney Jordan Turk as she takes you through strategies to optimize your use of AI, as well as pitfalls and ethical issues to avoid. Accurate prompt engineering in AI programs can allow you to do a variety of different things, such as alter the tone of your client emails, eliminate ambiguity in your writing, and effectively analyze different legal positions.
The sky is the limit for this type of generative AI, and all legal professionals need to understand how to use it if they want to stay competitive in the future legal services market.
