We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.

"Pulling all-nighters to assemble PowerPoint presentations. Punching numbers into Excel spreadsheets. Finessing the language on esoteric financial documents that may never be read by another soul."
"There are jokes among junior bankers that the most common tasks of the job involve dragging icons from one side of a document to another, only to be asked to replace the icon over and again."
Now, law firm-ites are also seen as glamorous like investment bankers: expensive cars and watches, champagne at fancy parties, beautiful WAGs. But is their work also similarly routine and replaceable as AI? In fact, are they even MORE replaceable than investment bankers?
