A Prompt Engineering Approach and a Knowledge Graph based Framework for Tackling Legal Implications of Large Language Model Answers [PDF]
With the recent surge in popularity of Large Language Models (LLMs), there is the rising risk of users blindly trusting the information in the response, even in cases where the LLM recommends actions that have potential legal implications and this may put the user in danger. We provide an empirical analysis on multiple existing LLMs showing the urgency
