Lane using AI to become the smartest guy in the room, shocking....

Lane never made it past 12 years old, its why we love him, its why we love to hate him

Oh that's a great idea! I fully support this decision as long as nobody but Kiffin uses this clearly superior advantage which will definitely work out well, and has a zero probability of failure or negative consequences.

I'm an advocate for using AI to check on things but best to ask the question a number of different ways if you want a decent understanding of what's what.

Example , I used AI to cross check what I thought was bad info from my tax people and was able to confirm they were indeed wrong. Saved me almost 2 grand last year.

He's so dumb that he continues to win, have people talk about him, and makes generational money

I don't think he's dumb.

I think he's arrogant, among other things. I don't think he was told no often as a child. In fact, I think his own father, a coach even said as much.

Every practicing lawyer I know has stories of clients sending ChatGPT/Claude legal analysis (often based on misguided or one-sided inputs, giving a GIGO effect). Just funny - yet unsurprising - to see Lane Kiffin of all people doing it. https://t.co/lLoALClVqX pic.twitter.com/x14XFn7vJk

chatGPT for legal advice? what an idiot

---

That's not a fair comment. ChatGPT can be a very effective legal aid if used properly. Guaranteed plenty of legal teams are using this amongst other AI tools.

yes but a lawyer using ChatCPT is totally different than a regular person using it for legal advice.

Damn, why would his friend rat him out like that?

For the record, I didn’t “rat out” Lane about anything. I sent Lane a copy of my comments to ESPN for his approval and said I would delete any part of them that he wasn’t comfortable with or all of them. He replied via text and asked me to rewrite the part where I quoted his text… pic.twitter.com/orEURncr6C

This is objectively hilarious.

I do legal arbitrations for a living and while I do use AI to parse giant case files, I have to actively coach it through the argumentation process because it's wrong.....a lot. I have seen it assume important things falsely like numerical calculations and dates.

And this is to say nothing of the misinterpretations of state laws and faults in argumentative logic. It's useful just to get through the files but you absolutely have to monitor and coach it.

When we get written positions from consumers, you can almost always tell if AI wrote it or an attorney wrote it.

you should invest in a good legal LLM. mistakes are becoming rarer and rarer by the day.

exactly. I use it for my job too and if you don't have know the subject matter yourself it will return really bad results. you have to know what you're doing to use it properly

This. Every lawyer I know is using AI. You have to be careful, but it's a tool you simply cannot avoid using these days. Some clients are even requiring it due to its massive effect on efficiency.

That Kiffen used it to bounce off his lawyer isn't a big deal unless you're eager to rag on him.

This is accurate.

Earlier this year had a case against a pro se who, I believe, used CGPT or another AI interface. It got the cases right but neither it nor the pro se understood the differences between 2 particularly important legal concepts that we were, in fact, arguing. Turns out, their cases supported MY position and he didn't realize/know that.

In other words, it wasn't the cases that were important. It was recognizing the issues.

But that's not what happened here. Kiffen, like most people, didn't know much about the subject so he asked an AI. He didn't then go to court and use it. He bounced it off a lawyer. There's nothing wrong with that. You all just want to dogpile Kiffen. There are a lot of better reasons/opportunities to do that than this one.

Given his history and problematic employment(s), why can't the SEC just ban him from coaching?

Are they just worried about him going to the Big 10 (lol)?

Ah yes, the ol Herbstreit strategy of becoming an asshat and then bringing in a dog to become lovable again.

he did but ignored the lawyer when he said AI was wrong

he was probably telling people that "my friend said", and he wants everyone to know that it was ChatGPT, not him

Remember, a little over a year ago, when Kiffin said he needed Oxford and had found a home there? LOL!

He ignored it? How do you know? Kiffen eventually backed down, so it doesn't sound like he ignored it. Plus, I'm sure he was getting legal advice from someone who wasn't just a friendly sounding board like Tom Mars.

I passed the NMLS exam only using Chat.

because the article flat out said he did

Wrong.

Here's what the article says: "'Lane ignored most of my unsolicited advice, but I don't think he'll be using ChatGPT anymore for legal advice.'" Kiffin eventually chose to not roster Wright or Harris."

So in the end Kiffen did take Mars' advice.
