AI is Losing in Court

Judges are fining pro se litigants for relying on AI to write court papers.

They are striking briefs and imposing $$$ fines.

They are denying motions and imposing $$$ fines.

They are kicking cases out of court and imposing $$$ fines.

What’s wrong with using AI to write court papers?

AI can look stuff up and write stuff, but AI cannot “think” for you!

AI can’t know what your case is about. You can tell it what you think it needs to know to spit out pages of stuff you hope will your case, but it cannot know what your case is really all about!

AI often finds and cites legal resources that (1) don’t exist or (2) have nothing to do with the facts of your case.

AI is not “intelligent”.

AI “knows stuff”.

AI can find things when you tell it what to look for.

But, “knowing” and “understanding” are two different things entirely.

Trivia players who spit out facts stored in their brain “know stuff”. But, spitting out trivia is not “intelligence”. It’s having a good memory. Memory is not “intelligence”.

Intelligence includes the ability to understand, reason, plan, solve problems, think abstractly, and adapt to changing circumstances.

AI can’t do those things.

YOU must do those things!

YOU must do the tactical thinking. AI cannot “think tactically”.

YOU must anticipate what your opponent will do next. AI cannot “anticipate”.

YOU must understand what pleadings, motions, memoranda, and other papers are designed to do and make certain the do what they must do so you can win! AI cannot “understand” these critical legal tools.

YOU must plan the next step in your case. The first step never wins. AI cannot “plan” ahead.

YOU must do the “abstract thinking” to trip your opponent at every step. AI cannot “think abstractly”.

Most importantly, YOU must use tactics to win. AI cannot do “tactics”.

Tactics win court cases.

Tactics – not pages of text artificially created in response to a set of facts input by users.

Some will disagree with Jurisdictionary® about this, but a Google® search with terms like “court sanction AI” will show you the truth in a New York minute and, hopefully, persuade you to do your own thinking and use AI for what it’s good for.

Use your own tactical brain to plan every step in your case with our Key to the Courthouse methods, double-checking everything AI spits out, and doing your own research to make doubly certain that YOU and not some inanimate machine is in control.

Do NOT rely on AI for case-winning tactics.

That’s what Jurisdictionary® is for!

    You are 100% correct Doc!

    AI does not have a mind to think, know, and reason with.

    AI has admitted to this and agrees with this.
