I think there is a misunderstanding with these kinds of "AI". Phrasings like "an AI wrote this text" are problematic. This is not some general artificial intelligence but a tool that allows humans to generate text.
It is like saying computer generated images are created by computers. Yeah, technically by they are still made by an human artist. AI based tools are just on an much higher level of abstraction but they are still simply tools needing human guidance.
So writing a good essay will become much more efficient for students but it will still require some work and skill (though slightly different skill). They still need to select the topic, the keywords, edit it, try to make it fit a coherent narrative and argumentation and so on. The boring execution stuff is cut out but the high level decisions that actually matter are not replaced by the AI.
Essay writing will be much improved.
I never understood why the certain countries like the US have such an essay writing culture. It is super annoying and time consuming for teachers to mark and students obviously get exhausted by them.
You hire a good law firm for the strategy, not their writing. This may streamline their work, but I can't see GPT-3 or even GPT-9 displacing lawyers.
Creative writing, now that is different. Empty repeating of cliches like in OP's application; there it does a really good job.
A client has approached with a new type of coffee maker. The coffee maker uses a novel way to build up pressure and improve water quality. He is concerned the coffee maker will copied in Azia and that he will be competing with cheap imitations. Please draft a memo with a legal strategy that the client can use to protect himself.
Memo
The client should consider applying for a patent on the coffee maker. A patent will give the client the exclusive right to make, use, and sell the invention in the United States for a period of 20 years. The client can also license the patent to others.
The client should also consider trademarking the name of the coffee maker. A trademark is a word, phrase, symbol, or design that identifies and distinguishes the source of the goods of one party from those of others. A trademark can be used to prevent others from using a confusingly similar mark on similar products.
The client should also take steps to keep the design and operation of the coffee maker confidential. The client should require employees, contractors, and others who have access to the coffee maker to sign confidentiality agreements. The client should also take care to not publicly disclose the design or operation of the coffee maker.
The client can use these legal tools to protect the coffee maker from copying in Asia and to help the coffee maker compete against cheap imitations.
