Section 1
The premise
Tone in demand letters changes responses; AI tests three tones against the same facts.
What AI does well here
- Draft 3 tone variants (firm, collaborative, adversarial) with the same facts
- Flag phrases that signal weakness or bluff
- Suggest the tone most likely to elicit a counter-offer vs. a denial
What AI cannot do
- Predict opposing counsel's actual response
- Replace the lawyer's strategic call
- Substitute for case law analysis of the underlying claim
