It’s worse than that. The AI isn’t part of the attorney/client relationship, so anything shared with it isn’t covered by privilege and is discoverable.
I wouldn’t trust anything to be truly private in the hands of these AI companies, though – they’re always scraping training data from wherever they can get it (legality be damned), and requests from enterprise clients are extremely valuable training data. They’ll make promises about how everything stays in-house … but then your chat history gets integrated into the new public model through its training, and maybe it’s now able to reproduce your private information when asked.
That would be a massive legal dispute that would probably end up sinking them. There’s legal agreements they can’t train or use the data. Would blow reputation and be legal volcano
Never, ever use AI for legal review for a client.
Inviting an AI into the threads removes privilege.
You could use a local AI… that’s only running on your computer… that’s specifically trained on dumps of old cases and such…
But I guess lawyers are not known for their tech savvy.
Maybe you could say their heads are in the cloud.
lol, that too. Who knows what kind of private legal information you’re freely feeding to the AI company.

Disbarment should follow after the leak soon, for violating privilege
Enterprise usage of AI tools, at least those I have seen, is entirely private
Supposedly.

Are you and I seeing the same AI companies? They have 10 legal volcanoes per week … all part of ‘moving fast and breaking things’.
