🚨 BREAKING: Like in the movies, the judge in one of the AI copyright lawsuits allows authors' representatives to INSPECT OpenAI's confidential TRAINING DATASET in a secure room. Will it become the norm? Here's what will happen:
"Training Data shall be made available for inspection in electronic format at OpenAI’s offices in San Francisco CA, or at a secure location determined by OpenAI within 25 miles of San Francisco, CA; or at another mutually agreed location. Training Data will be made available for inspection between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on business days, although the parties will be reasonable in accommodating reasonable requests to conduct inspections at other times."
-
"Training Data shall be made available by OpenAI in a secure room on a secured computer without Internet access or network access to other unauthorized computers or devices. The secured computer will contain a README file that will provide a directory of the Training Data and brief descriptions of layout, format, and searching.
-
"No recordable media or recordable devices, including without limitation computers, cellular telephones, cameras, other recording devices, or drives of any kind, shall be permitted into the secure inspection room, except the Producing Party may provide a limited-use note-taking computer at Inspecting Party’s request, solely for note-taking purposes. At the end of each day of inspection, the Inspecting Party shall be able to copy notes from the note-taking computer onto a recordable device, under the supervision of the Producing Party. For the avoidance of doubt, medical devices (e.g., heart monitors, insulin pumps), stopwatches, and timers are permitted so long as such devices are not capable of recording or copying data from the secured computer."
-
"All persons who will review OpenAI’s Training Data on behalf of an Inspecting Party, including the Inspecting Party’s counsel, must qualify under paragraph 7.3 of the Stipulated Protective Order as an individual to whom “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” information may be disclosed, and must sign the Non-Disclosure Agreement attached as Exhibit A to the Stipulated Protective Order."

New AI in Law Research: Humans vs. AI in Predicting Case Outcomes
Key Points:
• Dataset: Analyzed 14,582 UK Employment Tribunal cases
• Human Baseline: Two PhD candidates in UK employment law reviewed 1,371 cases
• Prediction Categories: “Claimant wins,” “Loses,” “Partly wins,” or “Other”
• AI Models Tested: BERT, T5, GPT-3.5, and GPT-4
Fascinating Findings:
• Best AI Model F-score: 56%
• Human Experts F-score: 67%
An F-score measures accuracy by balancing true positives and minimizing false positives, highlighting the practical effectiveness of legal predictions.
Summary:
AI demonstrates strong capabilities in predicting case outcomes, though it still trails behind human experts. Notably, GPT-4 achieved impressive accuracy without any fine-tuning, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), or Chain of Thought processes. The ablation analysis indicates that GPT-4 correctly predicts about 70% of cases right out-of-the-box, which is remarkable.
Bottom Line:
This study sets a promising baseline rather than an AI ceiling, signaling significant progress for AI in the legal field. With ongoing advancements and the emergence of even more sophisticated models, we are clearly on the right track. This not only enhances AI’s role in legal predictions but also holds great potential for improving access to justice.

I’m excited to debate SB 1047 and the future of AI regulation with some thoughtful interlocutors this Thursday at @CarnegieEndow - please join (virtually) if you’re free!
California is poised to potentially enact the most impactful AI regulation seen thus far in the United States with the Safe and Secure Innovation for Frontier Artificial Intelligence Models Act (SB 1047). This legislation is the first of its kind & may help shape technology policy not just in the state, but across the country & world.
However, the bill has divided tech enthusiasts, policymakers, & industry with its proposed safety protocols. Ian Klaus welcomes @hendrycks, @typewriters, Ion Stoica, @ketanrama, & @JonKBateman to debate the impact of SB 1047.
📆 Sept. 12 @ 9 AM PDT/12 PM EDT
