@Richard Brown Well said. So, you might find this point in line with your point. We, Cathy and I, made a discovery, a discovery of a scientific law of nature - like the law of relativity. But, it is a different law. We call it a law of alignment. It shows that there are parts to a harmonious whole. It's a systems law. I won't go into detail on that, right now. The point is about AI. After sharing the discovery (prior to AI) with more than a thousand people and vetting it and seeing that it had merit, we wanted to see what would happen if AI examined it. And that was fascinating! The answers were amazing!

Couple simple ways to learn about it. One, changetheworldu.com; also book Creating Harmony. https://bit.ly/3WAECnK Even a look at the cover and inside jacket or back cover will give you a flavor for it. If you go to changetheworldu site, go to the discovery tab. The idea is this imagine the following columns: Whole body; whole interaction; whole system. Next imagine the following rows: Heart, brain, nerves, senses, muscles. What if there are parts to a whole (or what we call an aligned interaction) - and each part functions like a body part. Similarly, what if there were parts to an aligned system and each part functions like a body part. Now, conceptually, you'll see that means there is another column Function. Function is a common denominator of the Whole body domain (column); whole action (column); whole system aligned action (column). It's easier visually as you can see at the site. Yet, what it means is that we can map the AI and robots in the image of an aligned body or an aligned society.

Sometimes I will ask ChatGPT a legal question and then turn to Notebook LM, and notice Notebook LM will provide a more precise and in some cases more correct answer.

@Rosaleen Lopes Your description: "Leader spreading love and kindness daily providing inspirational content to lift spirits" - love it! Great to have more of that! Fascinating - you use it daily for photos. We use it mostly for text, but for some of our children's books we use it to help with illustrations (mostly ChatGPT). Curious how you sue it for photos. Take the gif with your profile - was that something you created?

@Sally Goddard Great question. In line with your question, I think of it as garbage in garbage out, with ChatGPT. If you want to make sure you are getting credible answers you have to be careful to be neutral, not biased. Also, there are times where I will feed Notebook LM answers back to ChatGPT if I think Chat went astray. And it will get straightened out.

@Leah Breazeale Great way to describe it! "Easiest way I know of to find specific information in a pile of documents." And a pretty solid storage reference system (thus, why they call it a notebook) - yet, as you point out it really is so much more than a notebook.

@Gjanden Mitchell Good idea to look into a chrome extension. After my post, I see that the Mac workaround is to highlight text from a pdf for example and docs.new puts it in new doc immediately in google drive. What I like about that is rather than pasting it into Word (downloaded version) and saving a document, it goes right into a doc and into google drive. It's pretty quick from there to put it in multiple folders. Up until now, I had not used Google drive, preferring to use hard drive (and sometimes Sharepoint) (even Word online is not as clean to work with as the desktop version). However, because there is this feature with Google drive, it might be especially useful for the legal research tasks. That said, I still think there might be an AI agent type tool that could be developed to aid with the legal notebooking type need being described. Thanks for your thoughts on it.

Rob, very insightful question and you're right on in some of your points. We're clearly seeing chat inquiries, sometimes it helps because they're well-written. Other times, they present a challenge because of the volume that is generated and sent, but even then it is helpful because it gives us a clearer picture into how the potential client is off and how the AI tool is also off. It often makes me wonder how inexperienced lawyers might have difficulty with the AI tools. It's helpful when you have a lot of experience working with an area of law, so that when AI spits out a mistake you can more readily spot it.
