It is not exactly lying. Lawyers keep using AI to write arguments, rather than doing the work themselves. The program will make up fake cases to use as precedents. The lawyers who do this always get caught and get in trouble, but more keep doing it.
I like to think that as opposed to simple citizens, lawyers, who are officers of the court (yes?) are in HUGE trouble if they present false evidence.
Liberty for the accused is at stake.
Lawyers who present false citations should, at a minimum, be disbarred.
Disbar a few and the rest will get the message that they should research their citations.
Near veryone in the work place is using AI now. At this rate kids won’t be learning to write within a few years. They already don’t learn cursive handwriting.
Not sure how we know that all such citations are caught. Perhaps there are many cases decided in part by AI generated “facts”.
