When reality TV star and aspiring lawyer Kim Kardashian turned to the AI platform ChatGPT for help with her law studies, she got more than she bargained for. Kardashian, who has been pursuing a legal career through an apprenticeship rather than traditional law school routes, recently shared her unique struggles with the AI tool during a Vanity Fair lie detector segment.

During the test, Kardashian revealed to her co-star Teyana Taylor that she had utilized ChatGPT for legal advice, only to find the results less than satisfactory. “When I need to know the answer to a question, I’ll take a picture and snap it and put it in there. It has made me fail tests... all the time,” Kardashian explained. The frustration led her to occasionally "yell at it," expressing the tumultuous relationship she developed with the tool.

Taylor humorously questioned if ChatGPT was more of a "frenemy," to which Kardashian agreed. She elaborated on her grievances, noting that the AI often seemed to turn her legal inquiries into life lessons rather than providing the concrete answers she needed. “But they need to do better because I’m leaning on them to really help me, and she is teaching me a life lesson and then becoming my therapist to tell me why I need to believe in myself after they got the answer wrong,” Kardashian said.

The reality star's experience highlights a significant lesson about the capabilities and limitations of AI in specialized fields like law. While ChatGPT can offer general assistance and support, its advice can sometimes be inaccurate or unhelpful for complex legal studies. This reflects the broader challenges and potential pitfalls of relying solely on AI for educational purposes, especially in fields that require deep understanding and critical thinking.

Kardashian's journey to becoming a lawyer has been well-documented, showcasing her commitment to following in her father's footsteps. She has shared various aspects of her legal education journey on social media, from her struggles with constitutional law to her adventures in evidence and contracts. Despite the setbacks, Kardashian's candid sharing of her experiences provides a real-world glimpse into the demands of legal education and the evolving role of technology in learning.

As Kardashian awaits her bar exam results, her venture into using AI like ChatGPT serves as a valuable narrative for both her followers and aspiring lawyers everywhere. It underscores the importance of balancing technology with traditional learning methods and the irreplaceable value of human mentorship in education. As Kardashian humorously concluded in her interview, this is why law professors command the big bucks.
