What the tracker covers
AI Vortex tracks public court matters, orders, disciplinary records, and other documented legal proceedings in which generative AI, fabricated authority, inaccurate quotations, unsupported propositions, or related verification failures are part of the public record.
Inclusion standard
- A publicly identifiable legal matter or proceeding exists.
- A source document or attributable public record supports inclusion.
- The record contains a legal AI issue, verification failure, or closely related allegation.
- The matter can be classified without inventing facts absent from the source.
Read status before outcome. “Non-alleged” is a corpus flag, not proof of a final adjudicated misconduct finding. Warnings, show-cause orders, procedural rulings, and final outcomes require separate reading of the underlying record.
02 · Reading the fields
Classification framework
Editorial impact
Summarizes the observed procedural, monetary, professional, or case-level consequence. It is not a prediction of future sanctions.
Failure modes
Tags can overlap. One matter may contain fake citations, fabricated quotations, and misrepresented authority.
AI tools
Tool names appear only when recorded. “Unidentified” does not imply a vendor, and counts are not usage-adjusted rates.
03 · Traceability
Source and review hierarchy
Corpus provenance.The case corpus is imported from Damien Charlotin's AI Hallucination Cases Database (CC BY 4.0) by an automated job, along with the source link for each record. AI Vortex normalizes the fields and adds classification, search and analysis; that is listed item by item, with every other source we use, on What AI Vortex adds. None of it implies Damien Charlotin's endorsement of AI Vortex or its classifications.
Official court or government source
A link hosted by the issuing court, tribunal, or government domain.
Docket or legal-document mirror
A repository preserving the filing, order, opinion, or docket material.
Publisher archive
An upstream archive preserving the relevant record without being the issuing court.
Secondary or other link
Contextual material that requires additional source review before reliance.
Source tier describes where the link points. It does not certify that AI Vortex independently verified every field. Treat the linked document as controlling and report discrepancies for review.
Public indexing and evidence depthAll 2,223 corpus records have stable, indexable public URLs. 1,599 currently meet the stronger publication and evidence baseline; the remaining 624 stay indexable with their documented limitations disclosed on-page.
Current review programSource traceability and correction intake are live. A corpus-wide independent field-by-field review is not represented as complete.
04 · Entity media
Portraits, courthouse images, and visual fallbacks
Entity images are local, versioned research assets. The current registry includes 21 verified judicial portraits and 9 verified representative courthouse images. Every real image retains its creator, source page, reuse license, alternative text, and caption in the page, report, and structured metadata.
Real-image gateA photograph appears only after the pictured person or building and the reuse terms are verified. Wikimedia Commons, official court materials, the Federal Judicial Center, and GSA records may support that review; no Google Images result is treated as a license.
Complete court coverageAll 706 normalized court profiles receive either a licensed representative image or a first-party scope marker derived from recorded geography and court classification. Scope markers are not photographs, official seals, or location maps.
Media registry revision 2026-07-28. A courthouse image may show one representative building and does not imply that a court sits only at that location.
