[QUOTE="NatashaS98, post: 137782, member: 25015"] Hi everyone! My name is Natasha - I am a Product Lead at TCLA and future trainee. :) With the assessment centre season in full swing and with you wanting to prepare for [B]group exercises[/B] and [B]case studies[/B], we want you to [B]practice using your analysis skills, develop your commercial awareness and build on one another’s ideas (like you would do in a group exercise). [/B] To develop this set of skills, we have picked a BBC article regarding how Bard AI has struggled to compete with ChatGPT (which you can find by clicking this hyperlink: [URL='https://www.bbc.com/news/business-64576225']Google's Bard AI bot mistake wipes $100bn off shares - BBC News[/URL]). Given how current the topic of AI such as ChatGPT is at the moment (and with many of us having played around with ChatGPT!), we chose this article to help you develop more knowledge about this trend as it may be asked or you may wish to discuss it at interview. I encourage you to give it a go even if you find this exercise tricky (this sort of practice is what will ultimately help you improve and feel more at ease with these kinds of questions😊). To help you, we have set out 4 questions for you to answer, which should act as a framework for your response. 1. Summarise the article in 2 sentences (this is a useful skill to practice, as many case study interviews or interviews surrounding an article begin by asking you to summarise the key points). 2. Can you think of any other companies that have been trying to catch up with ChatGPT? 3. What could be the advantages and disadvantages of ChatGPT? 4. From a legal standpoint, what practice areas might be affected by this trend? How might law firms be able to advise clients in light of this trend? The aim of this exercise is to help broaden and develop your ability to examine a real-life commercial trend from both a legal and commercial perspective and be able to present and articulate your analysis. Here’s the [B]twist[/B]: in this exercise, you will [B]work together and build on one another’s ideas[/B]. In your responses, [B]provide a reflection on the comment of one of the other contributors to this forum thread[/B]. (Please note, the first poster does not need to do this). As a TCLA community, we can learn so much from one another and practice exchanging our ideas with one another. Receptiveness to and the ability to build on others' ideas is a key skill recruiters look for during the interview and group exercise. Everyone who participates to this thread will receive personalised feedback regarding their response from a member of the TCLA team by next week 😊 Looking forward to reading everyone’s thoughts!
