@ReclaimD1 Yes, quite risqué. . . if we were living in the 1850s. 🤦♂️

I mean look at this, I’m so happy 😭

@hello__caitlin You’re nowhere near retirement age. You shouldn’t even be looking at your 401k except maybe once a year when you get the annual statement. The value of the market today is utterly irrelevant to your life.

@GuntherEagleman There was no “strike” on Diego Garcia. Neither of the 2 missiles reached the target.

@CBHessick @injunjohn86 LOL. In the past year I’ve litigated cases in San Diego, Detroit, and Minneapolis . . . but sure.

@RAHarrisonPA @injunjohn86 Perhaps if you spent some time outside of Florida, you might realize that your own narrow experience isn’t necessarily representative or optimal.

The prosecutor’s failure to check AI-generated citations is inexcusable.
But let’s not lose sight of the fact that the JUDGE then adopted the prosecutor’s citations without conducting its own investigation.
That’s a major judicial failure.

Update: Today, the Georgia Supreme Court issued an order directing counsel for the state to file a sworn affidavit providing a “complete explanation” for the filings that included non-existent cases and other errors.

@CBHessick @injunjohn86 I see from your cv that your only real world experience was a year as a big law associate more than two decades ago. With respect, the way career academicians think things should work is hardly ever how things actually work.
English

@RAHarrisonPA @injunjohn86 Obviously courts operate under significant resource constraints.
But judges have to take responsibility for anything that goes out with their signature.
An adversarial system can’t function if judges are reflexively adopting the analysis of one party.

@DietCoke_Esq I miss the glory days of the tramp stamp.

@injunjohn86 @CBHessick I can’t explain this any more than I already have. That’s not how courts function. But you feel free to keep yelling at the clouds.
English

@injunjohn86 @CBHessick That’s not how the courts function. There aren’t enough resources for the courts to cite check everything the lawyers file. The courts depend on the lawyers to present arguments fairly and accurately - that’s why this is such a big deal.
English

If a judge is making a decision to grant or deny a motion, shouldn't that judge be aware of the cases being cited? Shouldn't that judge understand if the argument presented actually supports the motion? If a lawyer cites a case, the judge should look to see if that case actually supports what is intended

@ipatents @RobertFreundLaw Are you fucking high? Also, it seems to me that fabricated quotes are, by definition, a manner of deceit.
English

@RobertFreundLaw Fabricated quotes are serious. But absent deceit, this is AI growing pains. Correct the record and move on. Heavy-handed sanctions are out of proportion. The bench should adapt.

More lawyers in trouble for AI misuse today:
Attorney represented a criminal defendant and filed an application to reopen an appeal.
The application alleged prosecutorial misconduct and cited quotes attributed to the prosecutor.
Only problem was the quotes were completely made up.
"The page Appellant cites to on page 4 for the 'legally inflammatory' statement by the prosecutor- is, in fact, the court reporter’s signature page, with no statements of any type by the prosecutor."
The fake quotes came from ChatGPT. A paralegal uploaded case materials to ChatGPT and pasted the output into the application. The lawyer didn't catch it.
But it gets worse: after the application was denied, the lawyer appealed the denial to the Ohio Supreme Court anyway.
And when he submitted his firms "AI Policy" to show he was taking corrective action, the court determined that the policy itself was AI-generated and was incomplete.
"The proffering of an AI-generated AI policy as a remedial measure in a case involving the submission of AI-generated fabrications to this court is, at best, ironic."
And two months after the sanctions hearing in this case, the attorney did it again, in another case.
He submitted a filing with the ChatGPT prompt embedded in the filing itself: "Would you like me to draft the next argument section (e.g., argument 1 – B on the 'nature of the charge' omission) in the same tone and format so your brief reads as a seamless multi-print memorandum?"
Sanctions:
-$2,000 fine
-Referral to Ohio Office of Disciplinary Counsel
-Must serve copy of judgment on judge of every court in which he makes an appearance, for 2 years
-Must include certification that all cases are real and verified, for 2 years
-6 hours mandatory CLE about AI ethics
-Must write apology letters to prosecutor, trial judge, trial defense counsel, and prior appellate counsel who were defamed by fake quotes.

———-Treason———
In the history of the USA, since 1778 actually, there has only been 40 treason accusations.
Out of those 40 only 13 convictions.
Out of those 13 all either had their sentence commuted, were exiled, or let off for a monetary fine except 2.
One of those did life and the other was hung.
