Svetlana, a 28-year-old woman from New York City, managed to get her landlord to fix the appliances in her apartment building without the threat of legal action – all, thanks to the help of AI-driven chatbot ChatGPT. The case stirred everyone’s attention when the news got out, and it demonstrated the chatbot’s powerful ability in crafting legal language and how to use it to resolve issues.
In February, Svetlana was presented with a notice of rent increase from $1389 to $1395 only days after she submitted a request for a rent decrease due to the broken rules in her building. Luckily, Svetlana had heard about ChatGPT and the 100 million people using it every month, and decided to resort to it for help. After a couple of attempts, Svetlana found success and wrote an articulate letter citing the New York rent stabilization code and argued that that the increase was unduly retaliatory. The same month she sent the letter, the landlord fixed the laundry machines. Although no official response was received, the newly-fixed laundry rooms call it a success.
Following this success and due to her faith in the abilities of AI-driven technology, Svetlana is now considering trying ChatGPT for more possible legal issues, such as her neighbors’ smoking conflict. It appears that ChatGPT’s power has been used to resolve other legal issues as well. For instance, a college student in the U.K. used ChatGPT-created documents to succeed in contesting a parking ticket.
As the widespread use of ChatGPT starts becoming more evident, we are getting a clearer idea of its potential in the near future. It is getting more and more apparent that ChatGPT can provide a powerful tool for achieving legal goals, providing various resources as long as it is used correctly.
The use of chatbots for legal matters is a new trend, and ChatGPT is leading the way. With its ability to craft legally-wordsmithed content and to follow legal conventions, ChatGPT can be a great resource for those instances when it becomes necessary to take legal action. It is clear that ChatGPT will continue being a game-changer in the way we approach legal wrangling in the near future.
