I’m curious where people draw the line.
I’ve seen AI be genuinely useful for:
- drafting or reviewing documents
- clarifying legal or administrative language
- preparing questions before talking to a lawyer
- organizing information before a consultation
At the same time, this is one of those areas where caution really matters.
Legal, tax, and medical contexts are exactly where AI can:
- sound confident while being wrong
- miss jurisdiction-specific rules
- oversimplify edge cases that actually matter
In practice, I see AI as a support tool, not a replacement:
it helps you think, prepare, and ask better questions —
but it rarely replaces professional judgment when the stakes are real.
I’m interested to hear your experience:
Have you ever used AI as a stand-in for a lawyer, doctor, or other professional?
How did it work out — and where did you stop trusting it?
