Facts:
Our client, John Doe, was shopping in the local Budget Foods store on March 15th of last year. As he was pushing a shopping cart down one of the aisles, he slipped on a small area of previously spilled soda on the floor. Doe was taken to the emergency room at the local hospital and treated for a fractured wrist and a broken arm. It was determined that Doe was texting on his cell phone when he encountered the spilled soda.
NOTE: Your research and the drafting of your Memorandum must be done prior to moving on to Part II.
______________
Part II: This part involves the use of AI tools to research and generate a Memorandum based on the same Fact pattern from Part I. You will need to input the information from the Fact pattern from Part I into the AI tool to create the AI generated memorandum.
_______________
Part III: You will need to compare and contrast your research and writing (Memorandum) with the AI generated Memorandum. Answer the following:
Compare the sources cited in your Memorandum to the AI generated Memorandum and discuss any similarities or differences.
Identify any differences in the discussion and analysis between the Memorandums.
Explain any variations in the application of the law in each Memorandum.
_______________
