The insidious chicken nugget
I missed part one of Tanya Thomas' four-part post but happily caught part two and got to catch up. Never has a chicken nugget analogy been used so well! She sets the tone with, "Do we know what part of the chicken these are made from, breast, wing, thigh or is it made from mechanically separated chicken, which is essentially chicken parts forced through a sieve at high pressure until they form a paste, then shaped and breaded; do we even know if it is chicken. We have moved from farm-to-table to factory farming to ultra-processed foods where we have no idea what we're eating." How does this set the stage for legal research? She goes on, "We once encountered primary legal sources directly by physically pulling volumes from library shelves, reading full judicial opinions, understanding law as textual and jurisdictional. Then came digital databases where sources remained visible but mediated through search interfaces. Now we've arrived at AI-generated summaries where sources disappear entirely behind synthesized answers." In part two she dives into what she calls the "Cognitive Architecture of Dependency," writing, "What makes this crisis particularly insidious is that some research indicate that it may create a reinforcing loop of low self-efficacy and high dependence on generative AI. This may show up in legal research where students who feel uncertain, which is most students initially because legal research is genuinely difficult, increasingly turn to generative AI (GAI) tools for quick answers. These tools respond with fluent, confident explanations that seem authoritative and comprehensive. The student's uncertainty dissipates. They feel like they've found the answer. Their cognitive load decreases. The experience is satisfying." Share this far and wide in your firm so you can try to avoid it. I can't wait for parts three and four! Be sure to read more at

I'll just right to the end and share, "2025 has made one thing clear: managing knowledge at scale now depends on pairing human expertise with AI-driven efficiency. This year pushed AI from 'interesting experiment' to strategic necessity, while also exposing the risks of misinformation, content overload, and unclear provenance.

I have several issues with the conclusion. I don't think everyone is out of the interesting experiment phase, especially as it deals with pricing. And while the author may think the message is simple, it's execution is far from simple. Read more at

She sets the tone with, "Do we know what part of the chicken these are made from, breast, wing, thigh or is it made from mechanically separated chicken, which is essentially chicken parts forced through a sieve at high pressure until they form a paste, then shaped and breaded; do we even know if it is chicken.
