Why this matter is tracked
False Quotes: Case Law | Plaintiff quoted Gideon v. Wainwright as stating, "[c]onstitutional rights would be of little value if they could be indirectly denied," but the court found this quote does not appear in Gideon on the cited page or anywhere; a similar statement appears in Smith v. Allwright. Outcome: Warning. "Artificial intelligence may ultimately prove a helpful tool to assist pro se litigants in bringing meritorious cases to the courts. In that way, artificial intelligence has the potential to contribute to the cause of justice. However, accessing any beneficial use of artificial intelligence requires carefully understanding its limitations. For example, if merely asked to write an opposition to an opposing party’s motion or brief, or to respond to a court order, an artificial intelligence program is likely to generate such a response, regardless of whether the response actually has an arguable basis in the law. Where the court or opposing party was correct on the law, the program will very likely generate a response or brief that includes a false statement of the law. And because artificial intelligence synthesizes many sources with varying degrees of trustworthiness, reliance on artificial intelligence without independent verification renders litigants unable to represent to the Court that the information in their filings is truthful."
