Grok did that to me. Fabricated information and when challenged about my inability to verify the cites, defended the fraud as genuine. AI is dangerously unreliable.

Thank you for sharing that.

Consider this possibility:

Perhaps the reason that AI generates false cites for lawyers is that the AI's programmers are intentionally trying to dissuade lawyers from using the AI output in court. That is, by generating bad information it forces the lawyer to either verify all the cites (as you did), or risk penalties when caught.
