Svetlana, a 28-year-old woman from New York City, managed to get her landlord to fix the appliances in her apartment building without having to resort to legal action, thanks to the help of an AI-powered chatbot.
ChatGPT Helps Svetlana Fight Retaliatory Rent Increase
According to the story by Fox News, Svetlana had received a notice in February that said that her rent would increase by 0.4%, from $1,389 to $1,395, only days after filing a request for a rent decrease over the defunct laundry machines.
Recently, the wildly popular chatbot ChatGPT has become one of the fastest-growing user bases, with 100 million monthly active users in January. With the help of this chatbot, Svetlana was able to craft a persuasive legal letter citing the New York rent stabilization code and arguing that the rent increase was retaliatory.
According to Svetlana, getting AI to help her create the letter took a couple of attempts, but it was well worth the effort. This strategy must have worked, as the same month she sent the letter resulted in the laundry machines being finally fixed.
ChatGPT: A Reliable Legal Chatbot Platform Proven to Achieve Results
Svetlana said that she never received an official response from her landlord, but a sign in her building announcing that the laundry rooms were back in service could not be ignored. Encouraged by the success of her endeavor, Svetlana is now considering using the chatbot for other legal issues.
Furthermore, stories of other people in different parts of the world also successfully using ChatGPT to draft legal letters have started emerging. In the U.K., for example, a college student used ChatGPT to get out of a parking ticket.
This reinforces Svetlana's faith in the capabilities of artificial intelligence and the direction in which it will take us in the future, as also explained in an article by the New York Post.

A Success Story of ChatGPT Resolving Legal Issues
After her landlord attempted to increase her rent following her complaint about the defunct washers and dryers in her building, Svetlana decided to utilize the chatbot's power and draft a legal letter to stress her points, citing the New York rent stabilization code.
With the help of the AI-generated letter, her landlord fixed the laundry machines in the same month that the letter was sent without a reply. This success story has motivated Svetlana to continue utilizing ChatGPT for other legal issues, such as a possible letter to her neighbors who smoke indoors.
The efficacy of such a letter could only be seen after its sending, but with the help of the ChatGPT and its ability to craft legally-wordsmithed content and follow legal conventions, such letters can provide an effective way of achieving legal goals.
And Svetlana's success is not alone, as a college student used ChatGPT to draft a letter to contest a parking ticket earlier this year in the U.K., as explained further in an article by CBS News.
