Artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT are increasingly attractive to attorneys facing time pressures and high client expectations. Drafting briefs, motions, or discovery responses can be faster when supported by a generative AI system. But in recent months, courts have penalized attorneys who relied on AI-generated content without proper vetting. A New York federal court fined lawyers who filed a brief containing fabricated case citations, and more recently, a California attorney was sanctioned for filing a response with false authorities generated by ChatGPT CalMatters report.
In complex technology litigation, expert analysis by a software expert witness can be a valuable tool for clarifying technical details and supporting legal arguments. In the case of Collision Communications vs. Nokia Solutions and Networks Oy, an expert report from Sidespin Group contributed to a broader legal strategy that ultimately resulted in a $20 million jury verdict.
