AI systems all have a hallucination rate—one that should not be ignored…
In 2025, some lawyers are still making the same mistakes when using AI.

A recent case in the United States serves as a stark reminder of just how real these risks are:
🔹 Last week, lawyers representing a family in a lawsuit against Walmart and Jetson Electric Bikes cited nine non-existent legal precedents generated by AI.
🔹 The judge found no trace of these cases.
🔹 The lawyers had to admit that their internal AI system had "hallucinated" the cases.

⚠️ Why is this a major issue?
📌 A lawyer remains fully responsible for their work. Saying "It’s the AI’s fault" is not a valid excuse.
📌 Failing to verify legal work before submitting it to a court is a reputational disaster for any law firm.
📌 All generative AI models can hallucinate, and no model guarantees 100% accuracy.
