    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    Those are doctors evaluating the responses the AIs are giving, not Joe Public. There’s a chasm of difference in expertise & experience between the two groups. I was admitted to the Texas Bar in 1994, and every month, I get the Bar Journal, which devotes a section reporting on who got...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Saw that a few hours ago. YIKES! Definitely plays into some of my stronger fears.

    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    The problem is, people ARE trusting general purpose LLMs to make diagnoses or suggest dangerous self-help actions. We’ve seen that with the glue on pizza and taste-testing of mushrooms incidents. Those got caught, which is why we know about them. But like the aforementioned site that tracks...

    That may or may not explain why I got fat.

    There’s a reason why diagnostic programs are still significantly less accurate than living MDs.

    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    This is my general viewpoint, because facts don’t care about feelings. Mary Mallon was insulted by and thus refused refused to abide by doctors’ orders and those of NY public health services. As a one-woman disease vector, she earned the nickname “Typhoid Mary” and a one-way trip into...

    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    There are at least 50 afflictions humans suffer that can cause “flu-like symptoms”, which vary greatly in rarity. Some have subvarieties with different severities. Some are viral. Some are bacterial. Some are parasitic. Some are fungal. Some are immune diseases. Some are syndromes. Some...

    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    Given enough time, any discussion of legal frameworks on an international board WILL feature examples from different countries. I know I’ve seen citations of regulations from Canada, England, New Zealand, France and others right here on ENWorld.🤷🏾‍♂️

    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    OK, so you don’t mean what you said literally, but metaphorically. 👍🏽 Here’s the thing, though: nearly every safety law, public health measure, OSHA regulation, professional conduct standard, or licensing requirement gets some kind of pushback. Some frame it as an insult to their intellect and...

    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    (Emphasis mine.) You don’t do that. You do NOT insult the populace when drafting laws. You simply legislate that LLMs cannot dispense medical or legal information beyond recommendations to seek professional guidance. Companies or individuals releasing AIs that do so get held liable-...

    AN AI band has 900,000 monthly listeners

    Along with other factors, customizability is always dependent on the medium. It was less about the attractiveness of the first sculpture- though that is always noted- because Guillame’s version is still clearly a beautiful male figure. But he also more clearly emphasized that this wasn’t just...

    AN AI band has 900,000 monthly listeners

    Well, having been on both sides of this situation, I’d say yes and no. They’re expressing someone else’s idea, but unless doing it in someone else’s style is part of the commission, they’re probably doing it in their unique manner. And art history is full of commissioned work that was...

    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    I don’t think so. I suspect that what’s happening in those cases is that the judge- having caught the attorneys using bogus AI cases- gives a verbal reprimand (and possibly a contempt citation) and allows them to rectify their pleadings without referring them to the bar association for further...

    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    Quoting the article: A couple hundred cases “since the spring”, and an educated guess that most don’t get reported. Wrist slaps for AIBS need to turn into suspensions, IMHO, ASAP.

    Old age/old injury damage should be in d4s, the most painful of all dice.

    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    I have encountered many extremely knowledgeable people who were bad communicators. Some were in fields that demanded some skill in communication. Add to that being naive and/or unskilled at politics (in general, not just the governmental version of it) and you get people who are very prone to...

    Old shows that you enjoy?

    It’s actually worse than that: it was cancelled after 10 episodes were made. But the last episode aired was the 6th, and that episode was the first a two-part storyline. Eventually, the later episodes were aired on line or some such. The Sci-Fi Channel aired the entire series a few years...
