This "blue sky idea" paper outlines the opportunities and challenges in data mining and machine learning involving making a computational attorney – an intelligent software agent capable of helping human lawyers with a wide range of complex high-level legal tasks such as drafting legal briefs for the prosecution or defense in court. In particular, we discuss what a ChatGPT-like Large Legal Language Model (L^3M) can and cannot do today, which will inspire researchers with promising short-term and long-term research objectives.
