The logic is simple: an AI tool is not an attorney. It has no law license owes no duty of loyalty and its terms of service explicitly disclaim any attorney-client relationship. Sharing case details with an AI platform is legally no different from talking through your legal situation with a friend (which is not privileged). You can't fix it after the"

"btw econ is a fundamentally unserious major because even at a top school like UC Berkeley the highest level math required to graduate with an econ degree is Calculus II. even the math intensive advanced econ degree only requires you to take up to multi-variable calculus Economics is very underrated tbh. The longer Ive been in the financial industry the sillier it is I find all the jeering of economics by finance bros who got B+ in their undergrad advanced micro. Most people live their whole lives not understanding the concept of equilibrium. Economics is very underrated tbh. The longer Ive"

"Last week we learned that football applies quantum physics logic in defining a catch. This week we learn that football defines forward and backwards passes in absolute changes in ball position and not vectors relative to the quarterbacks reference frame. I have no clue how this is ruled a backwards pass Hes clearly pushing the ball forward and it gets deflected and lands behind him You could say he fumbled but I dont see a backwards pass https://t.co/CPQOi6M2Io I have no clue how this is ruled a backwards pass Hes clearly pushing the ball forward and it gets deflected and lands behind him You"

"Football rules work like quantum mechanics: its both a catch and not a catch until we observe whether he was able to maintain possession through the ground. Only once we observe that can we determine whether the receiver caught the ball and was therefore down by contact. My thoughts on the overtime ruling of interception in #BUFvsDEN.
