🤔 Interesting Development in Legal AI Disclosure

While I've argued against courts mandating special orders for AI disclosure in legal work, it turns out disclosure might be required anyway – not by courts, but by the AI providers themselves.

Case in point: Anthropic (creator of Claude) classifies legal work as a "high-risk" use case in their updated policy. Using their AI for legal work requires:

- Disclosure to end users

- Human-in-the-loop review

- Qualified professional oversight

So even as judges and courts debate whether to require AI disclosure, the AI companies are quietly setting their own standards.

It's a fascinating example of how technology providers may help shape legal practice, sometimes in unexpected ways.

Thoughts? How do you see AI providers' policies influencing legal practice standards?
