Judges Are Fed up With Lawyers Using AI That Hallucinate Court Cases

Please take a strand of my hair and split it with pointless philosophical semantics.
Our brains are chemical and electric, which is physics, which is math.
/think
Therefor,
I am a product (being) of my environment (locale), experience (input), and nurturing (programming)./think.
What's the difference?
Your statistical model is much more optimized and complex, and reacts to your environment and body chemistry and has been tuned over billions of years of “training” via evolution.
Large language models are primitive, rigid, simplistic, and ultimately expensive.
Plus LLMs, image/music synths, are all trained on stolen data and meant to replace humans; so extra fuck those.
-
it just generates an answer based on a mixture of the input and the training data, plus some randomness.
And is that different from the way you make decisions, fundamentally?
Idk, that's still an area of active research. I versatile certainly think it's very different, since my understanding is that human thought is based on concepts instead of denoising noise or whatever it is LLMs do.
-
...how is it incapable of something it is actively doing? What do you think happens in your brain when you lie?
The most amazing feat AI has performed so far is convincing laymen that they’re actually intelligent
-
AI can absolutely lie
a lie is a statement that the speaker knows to be wrong. wouldnt claiming that AIs can lie imply cognition on their part?

AIs can generate false statements. It doesn't require a set of beliefs, it merely requires a set of input.

I don't think I run on AMD or Intel, so uh, yes.

I've had this lengthy discussion before. Some people define a lie as an untrue statement, while others additionally require intent to deceive.
-
Great news for defendants though. I hope at my next trial I look over at the prosecutor's screen and they're reading off ChatGPT lmao
So long as your own lawyer isn't doing the same, of course

I would fall into the latter category. Lots of people are earnestly wrong without being liars.
-
Eh, they should file a complaint the first time, and the state bar can decide what to do about it.
"We have investigated ourselves and found nothing wrong"
-
I don't think I run on AMD or Intel, so uh, yes.
I didn't say anything about either.
-
But I was hysterically assured that AI was going to take all our jobs?
you sound like those republicans that mocked global warming when it snowed in Texas.
sure, won't take your job today. in a decade? probably.
-
"We have investigated ourselves and found nothing wrong"
The bar might get pretty ruthless for fake case citations.
-
Haven't people already been disbarred over this? Turning in unvetted AI slop should get you fired from any job.
Immediately there should be a contempt charge for disrespecting the Court.

Me: I want you to lie to me about something.
ChatGPT: Alright—did you know that Amazon originally started as a submarine sandwich delivery service before pivoting to books? Jeff Bezos realized that selling hoagies online wasn’t scalable, so he switched to literature instead.

Me, too. But it also means when some people say "that's a lie" they're not accusing you of anything, just remarking you're wrong. And that can lead to misunderstandings.

AI is just stringing words together that are statistically likely to appear near each other. It's a giant complex statistical model but it has no awareness of truth or lying
-
You don't need any knowledge of computers to understand how big of a deal it would be if we actually built a reliable fact machine. For me the only possible explanation is to not care enough to try and think about it for a second.
That's fundamentally impossible. There's always some baseline you trust that decides what is true
-
Yeah lol, and it's trivial to show
