He explained the distinctions between closed\/internal AI systems (such as some legal AI tools), and open, internet\u2011trained large language models (like ChatGPT).<\/p>\n

Riley advises users to treat AI as a third party or a separate company, cautioning that \u201cdata brokers behind the veil are collecting data and using it in new and creative ways.\u201d He says this is especially alarming as the industry is starting to see AI cyber security breaches, and concerns are emerging around data retention and the dangers of recording or summarizing sensitive meetings.<\/p>\n

Hallucinated case law, data security, confidentiality, and deceptive AI behavior persist as risks when using AI partly because it is designed to frame output around a user\u2019s preferences and search history, Riley…<\/p>\n
