Legal professionals have faced consequences for irresponsible use of AI-driven tools, such as citing nonexistent cases. This issue affects both lawyers and judges, with notable examples of sanctions and mockery in court. With rising errors linked to AI in legal citations, law schools are responding by enhancing their curricula. Institutions like the University of Chicago and Yale are focusing on training students to understand AI's limitations while reinforcing the importance of human judgment, research, and verification in legal practice.
"You can never give enough reminders and enough instruction to people about the fact that you cannot use AI to replace human judgment, human research, human writing skills, and a human's job to verify whether something is actually true or not," said William Hubbard, deputy dean of University of Chicago Law School.
