AI Usage Outside of Your Legal Practice to Improve Well-Being

The American Bar Association recently published an online article titled, “Career Development and Wellness” which discusses how AI can improve and assist with a lawyer’s overall well-being. The article states, “As lawyers figure out how to responsibly, ethically, and effectively integrate AI into their legal practices, a good place to start might be where lawyers generally struggle the most – their health and well-being.”

In LMICK Minute Issue #52 we discussed how to create AI “prompts” and pitfalls to avoid when creating them. The ABA article provides sample prompts to plug into AI as it relates to health and well-being. For example, if you are struggling to figure out a fitness routine that fits your schedule, the article provides the following sample prompt:

“Create a workout schedule for the next 8 weeks, prioritizing at least 4 days per week of strength training, one day a week of Zone 2 cardio, one day a week of Zone 4 interval training with one day of rest, and one or two fun fitness activities like biking or paddle boarding. Please make sure I get at least 150 minutes of cardio each week.”

As the article points out, you can modify the prompt to your level of fitness knowledge or desired workout availability, level of fitness, desired results within a particular time frame, etc.

If you want to try and change your diet and are not sure what dietary plan to follow, the article also provides the following sample prompt:

“Please prepare a meal plan for the next week for (number of people) with a total number of calories per person of approximately (number of calories). We follow a (type of diet or dietary restrictions) diet. Please include recipes and shopping list for the week. We plan to eat out on Wednesday night and need lunches only on Tuesday through Thursday.”

As you can see, AI can be used not only in your legal practice, but also in your everyday life to ease the burden of many of life’s daily chores and goals. LMICK recommends that you read the entire article to learn how AI can further benefit your well-being.
