But the explanation and Ramirez’s promise to educate himself on the use of AI wasn’t enough, and the judge chided him for not doing his research before filing. “It is abundantly clear that Mr. Ramirez did not make the requisite reasonable inquiry into the law. Had he expended even minimal effort to do so, he would have discovered that the AI-generated cases do not exist. That the AI-generated excerpts appeared valid to Mr. Ramirez does not relieve him of his duty to conduct a reasonable inquiry,” Judge Dinsmore continued, before recommending that Ramirez be sanctioned for $15,000.

Falling victim to this a year or more after the first guy made headlines for the same is just stupidity.

    not really no. They are statistical models that use heuristics to output what is most likely to follow the input you give it

    They are in essence mimicking their training data

        everything is semantics.

        Lying is telling a falsehood intentionally

        LLM’s clearly lack the prerequisite intentionality

          They can’t have intent, no?

          The llm is incapable of having intent because it’s just programming

            precisely, which is why they cannot lie, just respond with no real grasp of wether what they output is truth or falsehoods.
