Your Future Lawyer Could Be An AI

Genie AI, a leading artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technology company, today provides an update on the progress made while developing the UK’s first AI Legal Assistant (image provided below). 

Genie AI are building proprietary Large Language Models (LLM) which lean on OpenAI’s GPT-4 technology. GPT-4 passed the multiple-choice portion of the Uniform Bar Exam (UBE), and both the written components, exceeding all prior LLMs by scoring in the top 10% of all humans who take the legal exam. For reference, GPT-3 scored in the bottom 10%. 

Exponential improvements in the ability of foundation models such as this, came from increasing the scale of the underlying model, rather than fine-tuning for law. In other words, GPT-4 outperforms smaller AI models that have been specifically trained on legal datasets. 

London-based Genie AI however, will outperform GPT-4 at these legal tasks by the end of the year (As measured by accuracy under UK law): 

Further, Genie AI will go beyond the simple generative chat interface popularised by ChatGPT, Bard and Bing. Instead, Genie’s AI Legal Assistant will be built native within the Genie editor so it can comment, review, reformat, highlight, annotate, suggest and export, just like a human can, making Genie AI the UK’s first ‘multi-modal’ AI Legal Assistant. 
 

 
To outperform GPT-4, Genie’s AI Legal Assistant: 

Genie’s 1500 open-source legal templates are now used by 1000 law firms and companies with in-house legal teams, 10,000 organisations overall, and 200 more join every day. 

The proprietary data generated by the comments, suggestions and edits made by these users is then anonymised, structured and fed into Genie AI’s own LLM to fine-tune. 

Alex Papadopoulos, ML Research Scientist at Genie AI, said: “We are proud of the progress we’ve made in developing our AI legal assistant. Proprietary usage data combined with 100k+ megacap company agreements form the foundation of our LLM. With our continuous customer research, we will develop the world’s best AI Legal Assistant for the UK and beyond.” 

Genie AI is also testing its AI Legal Assistant in other complementary common law jurisdictions (including the United States, Canada, India, Australia and New Zealand).
