The advice to check one AI system against another like triangulating news stories since “if they all say the same thing, the story is more likely right than wrong”… when the article began with the premise that all the models are being targeted with misinformation.

Absolutely gutted. I owe Randy a huge intellectual debt: he taught me how to think about copyright & tech, about how to structure class & hypos & cold calls, about interdisciplinary scholarship. He was a foil and an inspiration. Direct, candid, honest, funny & generous. Gone too soon.

There's a recognizable Chicago Law style: plain-spoken, brash, rapid-fire, curious, wide-ranging, ambitious, and above all else in love with the back-and-forth of intellectual exchange. It can be done better or worse, but Randy Picker exemplified the Chicago Law style at its its very best.

7th Cir. sanctioned another attorney for AI hallucinations in a brief ($5,000 fine) and referred the case to the Illinois bar discipline authority. FN 5 seems like a smart practice. "To avoid memorializing errors, we have chosen not to include . . ." etc. media.ca7.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/Opin...
The last eleven pages of the brief contained the most serious errors. From pages 19 to 29, every quote appeared to be an AI hallucination. And many of the “Seventh Circuit” cases cited turned out to be mislabeled opinions from other circuits that were unrelated to the issues in this case. One case does not exist at all.5 All told, there were twenty-four unattributable or outright false quotes, along with at least seven mislabeled or nonexistent cases.5To avoid memorializing errors, we have chosen not to include any of the false citations or quotes in this opinion. The original brief can be found at docket entry 15 on the CM/ECF page for this case.

On this day in 1964, Pauli Murray circulated a memo arguing that black and white women would “share a common fate of discrimination” unless Title 7 of the 1964 Civil Rights Act prohibited sex discrimination in employment as well as race discrimination. The memo helped keep the “sex amendment” in T7.

I really hesitate to weigh in here, because the conversation has gotten ugly in a way I find not particularly constructive, but I took a look because the example is copyright law. I've spent hours pouring over the law & legislative record on this for my own research and I have some thoughts.
