Ridgewood NJ, while OpenAI’s ChatGPT claims it can pass the bar exam, a recent research paper suggests that relying solely on AI might not be advisable if you’re facing legal trouble.
In what resembles a nightmare scenario for aspiring lawyers, a new research paper dissects OpenAI’s assertion that GPT-4 successfully passed the bar exam.
Published in Artificial Intelligence and Law under the title “Re-evaluating GPT-4’s bar exam performance,” the paper questions both the score achieved by the large language model (LLM) and the interpretation of its capabilities, as presented in reports last year. This scrutiny emerges amidst the legal profession’s increasing adoption of LLMs as research tools, albeit with occasional high-profile errors.
Here’s what the study uncovers: OpenAI initially made headlines with its claim that GPT-4 excelled on a “simulated bar exam,” positioning the LLM within the top 10% of test-takers. Another report, predating OpenAI’s findings, indicated that GPT-4 achieved a score of 297 on the Uniform Bar Exam, surpassing the threshold for passing in all jurisdictions.
However, the research from Artificial Intelligence and Law, authored by Eric Martínez, a PhD student at MIT and Harvard Law School graduate, challenges the validity of the comparison made in OpenAI’s claim. Martínez argues that the sample group used in the comparison, consisting of February Illinois State Bar test-takers, is heavily skewed towards repeat examinees who previously failed the July administration, resulting in significantly lower scores compared to the general test-taking population.

I know a lot of robots that passed the bar.
I think that the role of chat gpt is overestimated
it is only a matter of time before this technology forces changes to testing methods
