Abstract
We present LawGiBa, a proof-of-concept demonstration system for legal assistance that combines GPT, legal knowledge bases, and Prolog’s logic programming structure to provide explanations for legal queries. This novel combination effectively and feasibly addresses the hallucination issue of large language models (LLMs) in critical domains, such as law. Through this system, we demonstrate how incorporating a legal knowledge base and logical reasoning can enhance the accuracy and reliability of legal advice provided by AI models like GPT. Though our work is primarily a demonstration, it provides a framework to explore how knowledge bases and logic programming structures can be further integrated with generative AI systems, to achieve improved results across various natural languages and legal systems.
