this is why one needs to be very aware of the llm output. today is december 4, 2025. imagine doing research that is dependent upon timelines and specific time periods. typical attributes in a query when pulling/extracting data.

the references to legal use cases makes way more sense now. it is one of the showcase use cases in their developer docs. also super duper interesting is that fine-tuning is only avail on bedrock.

yet, while prompting custom llms is helpful for intersections/joins, still prefer the the regular research tool for precision re law/statues/codes (w/o worrying about hallucinations). the query in natural language was unauthorized access to property with the attribute of u.s. federal jurisdiction

okay, this is a helpful use case for custom llms. law is often taught as "silos" when, in fact, there are intersections everywhere in "real life". so if trying to understand joins/nuances, prompting custom llm helps at joins/intersections to augment class doctrine teaching/learning

in studying for law school finals, an oddball game one can play is "can you spot the hallucinations?" unorthodox right?
also, this is an example of how a custom LLM actually does help with retrieval. my short prompt/query about comparing "rules" was completely understood (no hallucinations so far)
