I'm surprised they've chosen to release a medical focused model (Med-PaLM 2) before releasing a law focused model of PaLM. I'd think it would be simpler to train and also less liability?
On the one hand, yes. On the other hand, if they are both going to have liability issues, choosing the one that isn't literally full of lawyers seems like a smart play.
A medical focused model has much better PR value as an initial offering.
Idk, this feels like one of those things that would be a huge problem for a startup with a less established legal team, but fairly easy for big corporate Google lawyers to write language releasing them from all liability.
IANAL but why can’t you just say exactly “we’re not liable for how you use this product” ? How many lawyers does it take to add that to a contract?
