        I did a legal AI training session with Wordsmith. I had tried out ChatGPT a little but wasn't sure when to use AI and when not to. The course truly opened up my eyes. I now know when to use AI and more importantly when not to. I also now feel confident I know how best to use AI. Thanks Wordsmith team!
