“One of our lawyers relied solely on A.I. and f***ed up.”
Attorney John Morgan explains how his firm filed a legal brief that cited 8 cases that don't actually exist.
A cringe-inducing, cautionary tail about blindly relying on artificial intelligence.

My favorite part of being a guest on @FloridaMatters was hearing all the fantastic staycation ideas from @wusf staff. I realized years ago that I'd never discover it all on my own, and that the discovering itself was the best part of this whole thing. wusfnews.wusf.usf.edu/show/f…
