Date: February 11th, 2026 8:18 AM Author: cell phones I’m surprised xo is getting AI wrong. This article aside, the task of reading, processing, and creating large text based documents now has a cost of around ~$100 per month.
More lawyers know this than clients. But very few lawyers know this, and almost 0 clients. There’s a sweet spot right now for lawyers to keep charging the same.
But once clients realize, the price of legal work will plummet
It will begin, of course, with the complete annihilation of the young JD’s getting hired. Then it will just annihilate most lawyers entirely.
Could be a great thing for XO. Fortuitous meteor.
But it’s comical for anyone to think this is not imminent
Very few, if any, people are getting hired in 2030 to read process and write |

Ie biglaw rainmakers are building client pitches around the market’s expectation that they will shut off hiring juniors.

Date: February 11th, 2026 10:05 AM Author: LathamTouchedMe The idea is that AI makes the senior associates and service partners much more efficient. The old model had young people who didn't know shit about the law coming in and doing grunt work research, drafting and review. Their work is expensive, inefficient, and often crappy, but it had to be done so the more senior people could build off of it for the final product. And the juniors would learn so they would later become capable like the seniors. Now the grunt work can be done for a lot less and the juniors don't have a path to learn.

Date: February 11th, 2026 10:17 AM Author: ,.,,.,.,,,,,,..................... Just yesterday I called a specific employee at a client to request a specific document, which she optically scanned and e-mailed over. I only knew to ask for that specific document from that specific employee because I not only practice in this area of the law, but also in one particular jurisdiction which, a few months ago, adopted a local rule to streamline a certain kind of filing that they were getting a lot of lately due to business conditions in my district. They will make you refile if you don't comply with the local rule.
So to duplicate my work any AI programmer would not only need to find a lawyer who practices in my area of the law who is willing to cooperate in killing his own specialty, but any resulting AI program would need to account for local regulatory requirements and quirks, which change over time.
It's simply not going to happen, and I believe most if not all legal specialties have things like this which a human lawyer doesn't give a second thought to but which AI would find it impossible to do. |

Date: February 11th, 2026 10:15 AM Author: Refunkulus (I Always Post Always TP) I use AI to write short lines of code to do what I could have done in 1 hour in 1 minute. I then proceed to either do nothing with the remaining time or finish stuff and leave early.
I think AI will turn a lot of jobs like programming into Mechanic or Electrician type jobs - where when the tech was invented it was a prestige trade and you got paid a large wage - but then as time went on the prestige diminished and the wages also did. Mechanics and Electricians still make good money, but not like the guys who first learned the skill when cars or electricity was invented.
Hopefully this will also wipe out or largely reduce the jeet programmer problems and reduce their presence here. |
