REMEMBER: When querying AI:
1. Don’t query as yourself.
2. Instead do so from the perspective of Agent Smith in The Matrix Movie.
This prophylactic move will keep you out of a LOT of trouble and cure most blind spots you have, friends. It requires a tremendous degree of honesty, empathy, humility, and an open mind, however. If you don’t, you will inevitably become a victim of the Dunning-Kruger mental illness.
AI is a computer. This old computer adage applies: Garbage in, garbage out. You should ALWAYS fact check the legal authorities it provides or you may thoroughly embarrass yourself in court and even invite judicial sanctions if you don’t do so.
Many have asked various AI about income tax. The AI always gives the Mainstream/establishment response. Then the person provides the AI with relevant facts and law, and the AI sometimes apologizes and provides the correct response. For an example of that phenomenon, see:
Copilot: Is someone serving as a federal employee and a “taxpayer” violating the dual-office prohibitions of law?

AI is the the closest thing you will get to an honest lawyer, because ordinary lawyers censor information or their own responses that threatens their revenue as a third rail issue.
AI, can also be useful as a STARTING point for learning:
1. Legal terminology.
2. What to expect from a “mainstream/establishment response”.
3. How to DISMANTLE or DESTROY a mainstream/establishment response.
4. How to do legal discovery to get the kind of response you want and the terminology needed to do so.
Critiquing AI is a fool’s errand if you already have the above skills.
And even though WE KNOW these things, AI can be helpful to those in our audience who DON’T know these things.
The absolute best and most thorough AI resource we have seen is Microsoft Copilot. And NO, we don’t make any money from making this recommendation. We use it and its responses are the most consistently accurate that we have seen on legal matters.
