Re: AI outperforms law professors in Stanford Law study
I find this study quite suspect. I'd have to dive deeper but there's definitely significant alarm bells that should be going off for anyone reading.
Figure 2 (page 6) screams problems. There's only 16 professors (3k comparisons each?!?!) and the professors are all over the place. That's very high variance, suggesting the study has no meaningful statistical power. Poor instructor 16 can't catch a break lol
There's also really clear bias given that the main results only feature Google models. Other models show up elsewhere, why not there?
I'm no lawyer, but I'm a pretty competent statistician and can confidently say this paper has a smell to it. I can't call it bullshit, but there are red flags all over

Well, well, well... look who comes crawling back. 😂 The data is in, and the AI hype cycle is hitting a massive reality check. 55% of executives now admit they regret replacing human workers with AI. Even worse? 29% of companies have already had to rehire for the exact roles they cut. https://emeraldbook.org/news/may-3126-2/
