Prosecutors allege man used AI to scrape court website

"It's a piece of code that a user can run against a website to essentially circumvent the usual navigation process," he told Judge Lisa Graham.

"It means a user has used computer coding to obtain data that they weren't authorised to. That's, in a nutshell, what this matter is about."

The prosecutor said Mr Duff had allegedly sought legal advice from ChatGPT prior to being charged at a point when his login for the website had been shut down, and made enquiries about what police would be doing in the situation.'

They are claiming he didn't have a login, which he did, so he had access. They seem to be trying to make this a case of he downloaded bulk data that his login had access to? And you aren't allowed to have access to the data your login has access to?

This is a nothing burger. Prosecutor is an idiot and likely cost the state a lot in restitution.
