Full title: ‘Show How 3M Is 0% at Fault:’ Expert Witness Used ChatGPT to Write Report Defending Company in Deadly Explosion Lawsuit / ChatGPT prompts show how an expert witness report was created in a $61 million lawsuit over an explosion that killed three people.
People need to be held in contempt if there’s any AI hallucinations in their filings.
Many freaked out when Antropic reported they were going to watermark AI generated text because they’ll be caught quickly.
People in software development who use AI to code don’t realize how many white collar mid level admin people have started totally phoning it in using LLMs. I’m mildly curious to see how long they can ride this out.
Before the pandemic, two of my coworkers were first year law students together at the local university. The teachers discovered a cheating ring of 170+ students in their class of something like 200 students.
They just made them take a new version of the most recent exam and there was no other punishment, because it was too devastatingly large a portion of their students to expel them all, even though that was their stated policy.
I suspect something similar will happen with AI, and it will be just as disappointing.
475$ an hour? Fucking hell, for that money I’ll write any report to whitewash you and I won’t make it apparent that I’m using AI to talk about shit I have no idea about, AND I’ll make sure that if I do use AI to write the whole thing then it won’t be traced back to me by my ChatGPT history lmao
So you’re saying you’re bribable?
For 475$ an hour? Absolutely. I’d be getting paid near 5 grand a day for working 3 hours a day.
I hope you’re not an expect witness in maths.
Expert witnesses seem to be fake more often than not.
