Why this matter warrants attention
The Tribunal found that the applicants used an AI program that produced hallucinations, specifically citing a non-existent legislative section and misattributing a case citation. The Deputy President warned that while AI can serve as a starting point, parties must verify all generated text for legal and factual accuracy to avoid wasting the Tribunal's time and potential cost sanctions.
Fabricated: Case Law | Applicants cited a case allegedly called 'Reynolds' with a citation that actually corresponds to a different case; Tribunal concluded this was part of an AI hallucination/misattribution. || Fabricated: Legal Norm | Applicants relied on a non-existent section of the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal Act 1998 (Vic); Tribunal found the cited section does not exist and concluded it was an AI-generated fabrication.
This record documents a Pro Se Litigant filing issue in Victorian CAT, with the listed outcome: no adjudicated outcome recorded.
