Brian Marshall & The ROCK 108 Morning Show - "Lazy Lawyer"

A New York lawyer is being threatened with sanctions in federal court after he was caught using AI to write up a court filing.

The lawyer, Stephen A. Schwartz, was representing a man in lawsuit against a Colombian airline, applying claims he was injured by a food and beverage cart that struck his knee during a flight.

The lawyer then presented the judge with a filing that cited several other cases.

He says established precedent.

The problem is the defense attorneys couldn't find any record of those cases and neither could the judge.

That's when Stephen A. Schwartz admitted to using chat GPT to write up the document and it ended up being unreliable because it made up fake court cases.

Yes.

Judges scheduled the hearing to discuss the lawyer's poor decision and give him an opportunity to argue why he shouldn't be sanctioned.

Does Stephen go back to the well here?

and use chat GPT to argue why it's okay to be lazy.
