Mike Lindell's lawyers used AI to write brief–judge finds nearly 30 mistakes

It amazes me that you could use AI more than a few times and not realize you need to double check.

But then what? They used it for the first time???

I often times ask perplexity questions about research topics I’m interested in. I typically spend more time reading the references it provides than whatever it wrote to begin with. I find that, essentially, the linking between documents is the best aspect from a research perspective. The text generation is just an interface that provides more context than random queries into google scholar (which still is very useful). I think my real fear is that some years out all of its references will be ai generated as well, or simply some kind of ad, and the tool will become mostly useless.

It happens because the people who do it either think they can get away with it or are too uneducated to understand the confidence and accuracy of the output. Until the consequences are serious enough, slop will be slung [1]. It's too easy and mostly consequence free (until caught, penalties applied) otherwise.

Wow, Mike Pillow just can't do anything right. He's been snakebit since November 2020.

I'm not a lawyer, but that order sounds ominous.
