AI Made Up the Cases. The Court Noticed. | Judge Ken Hodges

What happens when artificial intelligence invents legal cases and those citations make their way into a court filing?

Georgia Court of Appeals Judge Ken Hodges says the court is already dealing with the issue.

In this See You In Court clip, Judge Hodges discusses a lawyer whose briefs appeared to contain AI-generated material, the additional legal education he required, and why the court takes fabricated citations seriously.

The conversation grows out of a larger point Judge Hodges makes about appellate review: the Court of Appeals checks the record and verifies whether attorneys’ representations are accurate.

He also discusses the court’s increased sanctions authority, from $2,500 to $10,000, and whether stronger consequences may help deter this type of conduct.

Artificial intelligence appears elsewhere in Episode 54 as well, as Robin Frazer Clark and Lester Tate examine another developing question: what happens when alleged harm involving AI itself becomes the subject of litigation?
