But the explanation and Ramirez’s promise to educate himself on the use of AI wasn’t enough, and the judge chided him for not doing his research before filing. “It is abundantly clear that Mr. Ramirez did not make the requisite reasonable inquiry into the law. Had he expended even minimal effort to do so, he would have discovered that the AI-generated cases do not exist. That the AI-generated excerpts appeared valid to Mr. Ramirez does not relieve him of his duty to conduct a reasonable inquiry,” Judge Dinsmore continued, before recommending that Ramirez be sanctioned for $15,000.
Falling victim to this a year or more after the first guy made headlines for the same is just stupidity.
LLMs are incapable of helping. If he cannot find time to construct his own legal briefs, maybe he should use part of his money to hire an AGI (otherwise known as a human) to help him.
That’s not true at all, they’re super helpful. I use them almost every day, they save me an insane amount of time and energy
What I don’t do is rely on it. I’m the developer, I know what’s going on, it has the memory of a goldfish. It also spits out code near instantly… Which I then read through and usually fix
But it makes less mistakes than I do writing dumb repetitive code. It will, 95% of the time, correctly tell me something in half the time it would take me to look it up, if not less
It’s nowhere close to a worker replacement, but it’s damn good at empowering people to do what they do
Sure. Look llms should be able to help, but only if there’s a human to bring meaning. Llms are basically… What’s that word… I’m thinking about it at the tip of my tongue… Word completion engines. So you think something up and it tells you what might be next. Its not how brains work but its like a calculator is to numbers…a tool. Just learn how to use it for a purpose rather than leat it barf out and answer.
