An easy way to regulate AI

What's more embarrassing than being a lawyer busted for using artificial intelligence (AI) to draft your court papers?

- Richard Chemaly

It's somewhat embarrassing to fall into a trap so many others have widely been reported to fall into before. Yet not only did it happen, it still happens and incidentally slows things down; for all the time saved drafting with AI, courts, lawyers and admin had to spend time investigating the use of AI and finding the outcome.

Similarly, management reports, university assignments - any document that people rely on will take so much more time to confirm whether it was written by a human or a computer. Sometimes, it doesn't matter. Other times, when there's some money or certification on the line, it absolutely does matter.

Some might not care about whether certain documents they're receiving are conceived out of the AI. I use a great AI to keep minutes of all my meetings. That's hardly contentious and frees up so much time to do more actual work.

In other instances, they may well care. Take, for example, when paying legal fees only to find out your lawyer is referencing non-existent case law on the advice of some software.
