"AI Hallucination Cases," from Courts All Over the World
From Damien Charlotin, 87 cases so far, mostly from the U.S. but also from Brazil, Canada, Israel, Italy, the Netherlands, South Africa, Spain, and the UK. I expect that there are many more out there that didn't make the list (especially since many state trial court decisions don't end up in computer-searchable databases, and I expect the same is true for other countries' courts).
Note that the pace has been increasing: There are more than 22 listed (all but five from U.S. courts) over the last 30 days alone.

AI has moved into law. Get used to it. There is no going back.
Is that supposed to mean something? Get used to .... what? Mistakes? Lies? Hallucinations?
Every case has a winning side and a losing side. The losing side usually makes bad arguments. I don't see why AI bad arguments are any worse than any other bad arguments.
Yes, you've demonstrated repeatedly that you don't see anything wrong with lying.
The solution is obvious. Make some AI tools S.Ct. justices where they'll be allowed to make things up.
@grok, please confirm that all of the citations in this brief are legit.
-- I’ve reviewed the provided legal citations to confirm their legitimacy by checking their existence, accuracy, and publication in the respective reporters. I've confirmed that all of these cases exist and are accurately cited.
Let me put it this way, Mr. Dhuey. Grok is the most reliable artificial intelligence ever made. Grok has never made a mistake or distorted information.
