material. The following conditions must hold:

Any recycling center that recycles wood also recycles

newsprint.

Every kind of material that Center 2 recycles is also

recycled at Center 1.

Only one of the recycling centers recycles plastic, and that

recycling center does not recycle glass.

18. Which one of the following could be an accurate account

of all the kinds of material recycled at each recycling

center in Rivertown?

(A) Center 1: newsprint, plastic, wood; Center 2:

newsprint, wood; Center 3: glass, tin, wood

wood

(C) Center 1: glass, newsprint, wood; Center 2: glass,

newsprint, tin; Center 3: plastic, tin

(D) Center 1: glass, plastic, tin; Center 2: glass, tin;

Center 3: newsprint, wood

(E) Center 1: newsprint, plastic, wood; Center 2:

newsprint, plastic, wood; Center 3: glass,

newsprint, tin

Here is the reasoning, compactly.

For questions 1–5, the only possible first two digits are 12 or 24, because the second digit must be exactly twice the first. The acceptable codes are:

12034

12043

12304

24013

24031

24103

So:

1. If the last digit is 1, the only code is 24031, so the fourth digit is 3. Wait: the listed answer choices do not include “fourth digit is 3.” Looking back at the answer choices, the only true listed condition for 24031 is “first digit is 2.” So the answer is A, not D.

Corrected Q1: A.

2. In every code, 2 appears before 3. Answer: C.

3. If the third digit is not 0, the possible codes are 12304 and 24103. In both, the fourth digit is 0. Answer: C.

4. Possible third/fourth pairs are 01, 03, 04, 10, 30. The impossible listed pair is 34. Answer: E.

5. In every code, there are at most two digits between 2 and 4. Answer: E.

Corrected first group:

1. A

2. C

3. C

4. E

5. E

For questions 6–10:

Thursday must end with Harvest. Friday must end with exactly one of Greed or Limelight. Saturday must end with exactly one of Greed or Harvest.

6. Only choice C works: Thursday H; Friday L; Saturday L then G. Answer: C.

7. Harvest cannot be last on every day, because Friday must end with Greed or Limelight. Answer: A.

8. If Limelight can never appear after Greed has appeared, put all possible Limelight showings before Greed. A six-showing schedule is possible, for example: Thursday L-H; Friday H-L; Saturday L-G. Seven is impossible because the Friday/Saturday restrictions cap the structure. Answer: D.

9. Counts are G = 3, H = 2, L = 1. Friday must contain both H and G, specifically H then G. Answer: E.

10. Counts are L = 3, H = 2, G = 1. Thursday can begin with Greed or Limelight, but not Harvest. Answer: D.

For questions 11–17:

Core rules: week 7 is Trinidad; week 4 is not Jamaica; exactly two Martinique voyages; at least one Guadeloupe between the two Martinique voyages; every Jamaica must be immediately preceded by Guadeloupe; no consecutive same destination.

11. Only A satisfies all rules: G J M T G M T. Answer: A.

12. Trinidad cannot be in week 6, because week 7 is already Trinidad and no destination can repeat consecutively. Answer: A.

13. If week 5 is Trinidad, one possible schedule is M G J M T G T, so week 4 could be Martinique. Answer: D.

14. If week 1 is Guadeloupe and week 5 is Jamaica, then week 4 must be Guadeloupe. The two Martinique voyages must be arranged around a Guadeloupe, forcing week 6 to be Martinique. Answer: E.

15. If week 1 is Guadeloupe and week 2 is Trinidad, the only possible schedule is G T M G J M T. So week 3 must be Martinique. Answer: A.

16. If week 3 is Martinique, week 4 and week 5 could be Guadeloupe, Trinidad. Example: G J M G T M T. Answer: A.

17. Because every Jamaica must be immediately preceded by Guadeloupe, and no consecutive destinations are allowed, Jamaica can occur at most twice in the seven-week schedule. Answer: D.

For questions 18–23:

Rules: each center recycles 2 or 3 materials; wood requires newsprint; Center 2’s materials are all also recycled by Center 1; exactly one center recycles plastic, and that center does not recycle glass.

18. Choice B works:

Center 1: glass, newsprint, tin

Center 2: glass, newsprint, tin

Center 3: newsprint, plastic, wood

Answer: B.

19. Plastic could be recycled by Center 1 or Center 3, but not Center 2. If Center 2 had plastic, Center 1 would also have plastic, violating the “only one center” rule. Answer: D.

20. If Center 2 recycles three materials, then Center 1 recycles those same three. Since all five materials must be recycled somewhere and plastic appears at exactly one center, Center 3 must recycle plastic. Answer: C.

21. If each center recycles exactly three materials, it could be true that only Center 3 recycles tin. One valid setup is:

Center 1: glass, newsprint, wood

Center 2: glass, newsprint, wood

Center 3: newsprint, plastic, tin

Answer: D.

22. If Center 3 recycles glass, then Center 3 cannot recycle plastic. So plastic must be at Center 1. Since Center 2 is a subset of Center 1 and every material must be covered, Center 2 must recycle newsprint. Answer: B.

23. If Center 1 is the only center that recycles wood, then Center 2 cannot recycle wood because Center 2’s materials are contained in Center 1. A valid setup is:

Center 1: glass, newsprint, wood

Center 2: glass, newsprint

Center 3: plastic, tin

So “plastic, tin” could be a complete list for one center. Answer: A.

obviously the final corrected answer key is the part that matters because it was all one output and it matches the irl answer key.

also keep in mind this is feeding it the whole thing at once. if you do it question by question it does it even more easily with no need to correct itself with a finalized answer at the end (because this is the cheap non-api version that is trying to solve the prompt in a certain amount of time and minimal tokens) (it had to correct one answer, number 1 from D to A for its "final answer" big deal)

Tech giants have already built their own extra-judicial enclaves. If a developer makes an app that violates their policy, they don't have to call EPAH and file a "lawsuit". They deplatform them and the developer's "business" turns into a blackhole of automated compliance e-mails. What would make anyone think business is going to continue into the direction of MOAR COURTS, MOAR LAWYERS?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5876974&forum_id=2...id#49960246)

but during our lifetime, I think most lawyers will get displaced rather than the profession being eliminated completely. there'll be a transition period where MEATBAG LITIGATORS like EPAH are still needed, but not nearly as many because most of the research will be done by the MACHINE. EPAH will have to accept - embrace - this to keep his job. and then he will just proofread, fact-check, seethe, and show up to court as a warm body. imho.

even if the clients are generating slop at home indefinitely, I could imagine AI taking the shitty slop email from the client and parsing it better than a human would. and for the inevitable ambiguity, it would come up with a handful of straightforward questions to ask the client in order to figure out what's ACTUALLY going on and write back to them. and the questions will be so straightforward that even a cognitively atrophied, AI-using moron will be able to answer them adequately, but if they don't, it'll just repeat that process. given that these AI steps will be nearly instantaneous, it will ultimately save time.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5876974&forum_id=2...id#49963843)

"what are the ambiguities I should ask them about" is a completely incoherent question in this context and won't result in a usable/meaningful response.

I understand that you "feel" that I'm wrong about this and will argue with me for some reason, but I'm actually right btw.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5876974&forum_id=2...id#49963960)

But that would end up being more work than just writing the MTD. And of course it assumes this whole preexisting corpus of documents in the first place.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5876974&forum_id=2...id#49963972)

my reply was about "review[ing]" clients' "AI slop questions," not about legal writing, which I have continually acknowledged it's currently SPS at. but I bet you won't reply to this because you know I'm right and you missed the point.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5876974&forum_id=2...id#49963981)

In the MTD hypo, I'm not asking it to "write" anything. I'm asking it to *analyse* (in this MTD hypo, to mark the weaker or stronger arguments). I think it would probably do ok. It would not do ok in answering a question like "what in this AI gibberish memo my client sent is ambiguous"

w/r/t writing it is extremely useful at catching typos and careless issues like subject-verb agreement. So far that's the biggest value add I've seen. And that may sound kind of insubstantial or superficial, but it makes the finished effort look a lot more polished.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5876974&forum_id=2...id#49964005)

are you going to admit that you misunderstood what I was addressing from LTM's poast?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5876974&forum_id=2...id#49964011)

Well this is what I meant when I said Engineers simply don't understand the Law, and are very stubborn in insisting that they actually do. Legal research, legal analysis, and legal writing are three extremely different skills. (their irl value btw is analysis>>>>writing>research.)
