We did this in a course on AI for law students at Karlstad University last week. Very fun, and the Friday seminar was full of nontrivial insights. Sports rules are harder than legal rules. Time-varying categories are a problem. Reasoning strength is language dependent.

It was a wonderful experience to become an Honorary Doctor of Teacher Education at last week’s Academic Ceremony at Karlstad University. It has been a great pleasure to work with such an accomplished group of scholars in the ROSE group over the past 10 years.

'hysterical set of reactions' and then it's just 'is he putting sensitive information in a commercial dataset?' and 'an LLM cannot actually give you an informed opinion', is there /literally any/ criticism of LLMs that will not be denounced as hysteria?

Yes, we did it at Karlstad University last year in the course on law and AI. The result was that the students also produced a massive three volume report of the results, very cool for undergrads to do on their own.
