Legal knowledge infusion for large language models: A survey
Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive capabilities and are increasingly being explored for applications in the legal field. Despite these advancements, LLMs still face challenges in providing reliable legal assistance to legal professionals and laypeople due to the lack of legal knowledge. Under this limitation, recent research has begun to explore the integration of legal knowledge into LLMs to enhance LLMs’ comprehension, analysis, and decision-making abilities. We first explore the different types of legal knowledge that are or can be used by LLMs. Then, we comprehensively review four types of current methods for fusing this knowledge. Next, we discuss the challenges faced by legal LLMs and propose future research directions, highlighting the importance of collaboration between academia and legal practitioners to advance applications in the legal field.
