Here is a take-off on the forbes article which is from the Legal
Ethics Law 360 email list (I also get the transportation law
stuff too):
Insurance Coverage For ChatGPT Legal Fiasco: A Hypothetical
<https://www.law360.com/transportation/articles/1696764?nl_pk=d963732e-149d-4918-a703-34cd62053317&utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=transportation&utm_content=2023-07-21&read_main=1&nlsidx=0&nlaidx=24>
William Passannante at Anderson Kill draws on the recent case of
an attorney sanctioned by the Southern District of New York for
submitting a ChatGPT-authored brief to discuss what the insurance
coverage for the attorney's hypothetical claim might look like.
And I think this is the original case:
Attys Behind ChatGPT Fiasco Apologize To Client, 7 Judges

A pair of New York personal injury attorneys apologized Wednesday
to seven federal and state judges and to a client for submitting
a brief prepared by artificial intelligence that cited
nonexistent case law attributed to the judges, according to
copies of the letters filed in Manhattan federal court.
And there are now other articles over whether or not chatGPT can
defame a person or something like that... And something about the
case being remanded.. (my head hurts).

Can't remember whether I read about it here or somewhere else, but apparently
there was a recent episode in which a lawyer got an AI machine to write a legal
brief for him. It looked impressive, but it turned out the precedents the
brief cited didn't exist; the AI made them up. The judge fined the lawyer.

I spent a bit of time playing with chatGPT to see what it could do. So did my
two sons - one an MS in biotech, the other a PhD in theoretical physics. We
all came to the same conclusion - chatGPT is a very, very good Google search
that can filter many different possible 'answers' and come to one that is 'most
likely' based on various factors. It has little to no creativity or
understanding of what it is asked to do. Not surprising, but different than
what the popular press seems to say about it.
