A judge at the High Court of England and Wales issued a formal warning to legal professionals, stating that lawyers submitting fictitious cases generated by artificial intelligence could face criminal charges.
The senior judge reprimanded lawyers in two cases for allegedly using AI tools in preparing written arguments for court.
“There are serious implications for justice administration and public confidence if artificial intelligence is misused,” said Victoria Sharp, president of the King’s Bench Division of the High Court, in the judgment delivered on Friday.
