The real signal is not "AI does law." It's the target: in-house teams and smaller firms priced out of Harvey- or Lexis-tier tools. Citation-grounded legal AI is moving down-market. That's the trend worth watching.

Lawyers' biggest AI fear? Citing a case that doesn't exist.
— Futurepedia – Learn to Leverage AI (@futurepedia_io) 25 juin 2026
Two years of peers getting sanctioned for AI-hallucinated citations made "just trust the model" a non-starter in legal. @perplexity_ai just shipped something built around that exact fear. 🧵 pic.twitter.com/RpEcMQi1ySLawyers' biggest AI fear?

LLMs should request delay for hard questions or provide quick guesses
By
–
This asynchrony really should exist in normal one-on-one chatbot interactions. When you pose ask a hard question to an LLM it should say, immediately, “This is a hard problem — give me 15m.” If that’s an issue, you should be able to say so and get a quicker guess.

Prefer AI SVGs over images, limit to 4 AI slop slides
By

lots of folks prepping talks next week (congrats!). Some thoughts from RLing on thousands of hours of engineer- and researcher- focused talks: – AI generated svgs > AI generated imgs. MAXIMUM 4 ai slop images in your slides, I don't care how pretty your mom thinks they are

LLM grounded answers may be corrupted by paid ads
By
–
And so it begins…or ends If this is true, it would completely change how we use LLMs. Not only they will still be able to hallucinate, but now even if they are "grounded" in data, sources, references, we won't be able to know if it came from a paid ad or is the true answer.
