Could you build this?
Partial The RAG pipeline and chat interface are standard, but producing a reliable abstention mechanism for legal queries requires calibrated confidence scoring and verified legal citation corpora.
What it would actually take: A production version requires a verified database of case law and statutes, a robust retrieval system with dense/sparse re-ranking, and selective prediction algorithms with conformal prediction guarantees to reliably trigger abstention. It requires a modern vector retrieval stack, automated Shepardizing/key-citing pipelines, and specialized legal informatics domain knowledge.
