Why this matter is tracked

In an employment dispute, the New Zealand Employment Relations Authority found that the applicant, QTR, breached confidentiality obligations by uploading the respondent's sensitive information into a generative AI platform. The Authority determined that QTR used ChatGPT to prepare submissions, resulting in the inclusion of 'hallucinated' legal citations and confidential employee data. The Authority issued a compliance order prohibiting QTR from uploading the respondent's confidential information to any Open AI platform. The decision highlights the risks of using AI tools for legal drafting without verification, particularly when handling sensitive or proprietary data. The Authority explicitly reminded the litigant of the necessity to verify AI-generated content and adhere to established guidelines for non-lawyers using AI in tribunal proceedings.
