AI: With the help of ChatGPT, tenant recovered ₹35,000 from landlord, AI became digital lawyer..

Today, while Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming a part of everyday life, a person uses it as a weapon in a legal battle to get his security deposit of ₹ 35,000 back. This case came to light on Reddit, where a tenant told how with the help of ChatGPT he forced the silent landlord to return the deposit.

The tenant said that even after contacting us several times after vacating the house, the landlord was not responding. Lawyers were not ready to take a case of a small amount, so he resorted to GPT-4. AI asked him for important information like name, address, rent, period of stay, and previous contact attempts. Based on this information, ChatGPT prepared a notice in professional and legal language which also included reference to consumer laws.

Within a few days of sending this notice, the landlord contacted the tenant and returned the entire ₹ 35,000. The incident went viral online and sparked a discussion on how AI could be helpful in small legal matters, especially when legal aid is not readily available.

However, some people questioned this method. They said that legal information created by AI is not always reliable as sometimes it creates false laws or references. The tenant himself admitted that he had cross-checked consumer laws before sending it.

This incident also brought technical and legal experts into the discussion. In this Reddit post, many people suggested that AI could become a cheap and effective solution to small consumer disputes in the future. At the same time, some believe that it will not be easy to fully incorporate it into the legal process, as existing rules and lobbying may oppose it.

At the end of this Reddit post, the tenant also suggested creating a platform where people post their complaints, choose a lawyer for the case and prepare notices and documents with the help of AI, that too under the supervision of a lawyer. This idea is getting a lot of support from people.
