There is a hell of hype but some of it is justified.

Chat GPT is really good at explaining stuff. Try asking to explain inventory capitalization, and just repeatedly ask it to explain it simpler and simpler and simpler. Then ask why repeatedly. It has a hell of lot more patience than a human and the client is going to be far less embarrassed repeatedly asking an AI than a human.

I'd also expect it to be pretty good at picking out relevant case law if to feed it a specific issue. However, where issues will arise is it will just make shit up at some point and it'll seem absolutely legit so you'll accept it without question.

infinite patience to produce bullshit has extremely limited utility
