In two recent judicial review cases, the High Court highlighted the dangers of unverified reliance on generative AI tools in legal contexts. In the first case, Frederick Ayinde vs. The London Borough of Haringey, the claimant’s barrister submitted citations for non-existent cases, which raised suspicion of AI-generated fabrication. The court suggested that either intentional deceit occurred or the barrister lacked honesty regarding AI use, leading to a referral to the Bar Standards Board. The second case, Hamad Al-Haroun vs. Qatar National Bank, involved a claimant and solicitor who provided misleading citations, admitting to using AI without proper verification. The judgment emphasized the need for legal professionals to diligently check AI-generated information, as these tools can yield incorrect or fabricated outputs. The court’s findings raise questions about stricter AI usage guidelines in the legal industry, balancing the risks against potential efficiencies in practice. Ultimately, AI should enhance, not replace, legal expertise.
