This is embarrassing, frankly.
“The University of Miami School of Law’s new essay requires applicants to submit a detailed prompt for a generative AI large language model like ChatGPT to generate a ‘comprehensive analysis’ that will help them make an informed decision about which law school to attend.”
For these law school application essays, AI is required
Using artificial intelligence for admissions essays is often discouraged or prohibited. For aspiring attorneys hoping to land a seat at two U.S. law schools next fall, it's an opportunity to stand out from the crowd.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.
This is not a joke. This is not normal.
Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

The National Environmental Policy did this. It’s a great law that we should strengthen by infusing it with a mission-driven, outcome-based purpose.
