Is this legal advice?
No. These notes are general information about using AI in legal work in Australia. They are not advice on a matter, a client or a court.
Lesson
A prompt that worked is not the work
Save the prompt and what you still had to fix. A prompt is not a precedent and it is not a check.
- Save the prompt and the fix
Keep the wording that produced a usable draft, and keep a note of what you still had to correct. The correction is the part worth reusing.
- Name the tool and the plan
The same words can behave differently on another plan or a later model. Write down which tool and plan you used.
- Leave the client out
Take out the client’s name, the file number and unique facts before you save the prompt on your account.
- Do not treat it as a precedent
A prompt is know-how about the tool. It does not become the firm’s preferred clause, and it does not record that anyone checked the output.

Questions
Who can read a note I save?
Only the account that saved it. A note on this public page is different: anyone can read it. Your own notes are not published.
What should I leave out of a saved note?
Leave out a client’s name, a file number and other personal information unless you mean to store it on this account.
