In the latest installment of the How it Works series, Midpage founder Otto Zastrow unveils the Midpage GPT, a cutting-edge plugin designed for ChatGPT. This integration promises to enhance the research capabilities of legal professionals by providing access to an extensive database of case law, statutes, and regulations directly within ChatGPT.
During the demonstration, Zastrow highlighted the critical difference between using ChatGPT’s general dataset and utilizing the Midpage plugin. While traditional use of ChatGPT can sometimes lead to text hallucinations—where AI generates inaccurate information—the integration with Midpage significantly mitigates these risks.
The 15-minute demo explores various scenarios, where case law-related inquiries are conducted using both the standard ChatGPT and the Midpage-enhanced version. Results show a remarkable reduction in inaccuracies when the plugin is engaged, showcasing the potential of this tool in legal research and drafting processes.
For legal professionals eager to see the technology in action, the full demo is available to watch on YouTube. The video includes helpful chapter markers for easy navigation.
