ChatGPT-using lawyer punished for citing fake testimony from made-up witnesses
摘要
新墨西哥州最高法院裁定，一名使用ChatGPT的律师因提交含虚构证人证词及虚假警方证词的简报，构成直接藐视法庭。法院指出，该律师承认未核实AI生成简报中的事实与法律依据，也未告知客户简报含多处失实陈述，且表现出缺乏悔意和对客户的关心。法院已将其移交纪律委员会处理。该律师有40多年刑事辩护经验，其客户因谋杀罪被判终身监禁。
The New Mexico Supreme Court held a ChatGPT-using lawyer in direct contempt of court for submitting a brief with "false testimony from wholly fabricated witnesses," including fake police testimony and other mistakes. The state's top court referred the lawyer to a disciplinary board for further proceedings and concluded that he "demonstrated a lack of remorse and a lack of concern for his client."
Attorney Stephen Aarons "admitted to the Court that he did not verify the factual claims and legal authority in his AI-generated brief before signing it and filing it with the Court, and that he did not inform his client of this failure or that the brief in chief contained multiple factual and legal misrepresentations," the state Supreme Court said in an order on Wednesday.
Aarons has been a criminal defense lawyer in New Mexico for over 40 years and was hired by a defendant's family members to appeal a murder conviction. Aaron's now-former client, Oscar Renee Sandoval, was sentenced to life in prison in February 2025 after being convicted of killing Shiereen Al-Jibury, who was his partner and the mother of his children.
