“I don’t trust ChatGPT with client data”
We hear this from legal teams every single week. And they’re absolutely right to be paranoid.
ChatGPT’s privacy policy is crystal clear.
Unless you’re paying for their enterprise version, your conversations can be used to improve their services.
Translation :-
Your client’s IP, confidential terms, deals and strategic information,
becomes training material for an AI that anyone can access.
But here’s what’s even worse…
If you use client info in ChatGPT, you’re violating ATTORNEY – CLIENT privilege
The Hallucination Problem
ChatGPT hallucinates on simple document review tasks too.
We’ve seen ChatGPT:
- Miss critical clauses in contracts
- Incorrectly summarize provisions
- Completely invent laws / judgements / precedents / provisions that never existed
- Flag non-existent red flags while missing actual ones
Every legal professional knows that they can’t afford errors in legal documents.
The problem isn’t that ChatGPT makes mistakes.
The problem is that it makes mistakes with COMPLETE confidence.
When a junior associate makes an error, you can spot it.
When ChatGPT makes an error, it presents it so convincingly that even experienced lawyers miss it during review.
AI Tools Take TWICE As Long For Document Review?
ChatGPT might sound like a BRILLIANT use case for document review
At first glance it looks mind blowing
You upload 50 documents and you can just ask it to review everything….
And that might make sense, because junior associates burn billable hours on work that feels mind-numbing
But ChatGPT isn’t the answer.
It’s actually making the problem WORSE.
Here’s why:
- You still need a human to review everything ChatGPT produces.
- Except now, instead of reviewing the original document, you’re reviewing both the original
- AND checking ChatGPT’s work for hallucinations and missed details.
You’ve actually DOUBLED your review time, not cut it.
Meanwhile, you’ve introduced massive liability risks around data privacy and accuracy that didn’t exist before.
So How Do You Use AI In Law Firms & Legal Teams?
What legal professionals actually need is AI that:
- Keeps all data completely private and never uses it for training
- Understands legal document structure and terminology
- Provides audit trails for every analysis
- Integrates with existing legal tech stacks
- Can be verified and corrected by legal experts
This is something OpenCraft is made for…

Generic AI tools like ChatGPT were built for general conversation, not legal analysis.
It’s like using a kitchen knife to perform surgery…
What Smart Legal Teams Are Doing
The firms that are actually solving their document review problems aren’t using ChatGPT.
They’re using purpose-built legal AI that:
- Guarantees data privacy : Your client information never leaves your business
- Eliminates hallucinations : Built specifically for legal document analysis
- Maintains precision : Every insight can be traced back to source material
- Reduces liability : Designed with legal ethics and compliance in mind
The goal = Reliable AI that doesn’t put your practice at risk.
What Now?
ChatGPT might be impressive for writing emails or brainstorming marketing copy.
But for legal work?
It’s a liability…
And it’s a BIG LIABILITY you can’t afford.
Every time you upload confidential client information to ChatGPT, you’re rolling the dice with:
- Attorney-client privilege
- Data privacy regulations
- Professional liability
- Client relationships
- Your reputation
Is a slightly faster document summary worth risking your entire practice?
