Dangers of Using AI in Legal Documents

Recent court cases have exposed the serious risks of relying on artificial intelligence to draft legal arguments without professional help. In a £89 million case against Qatar National Bank, 18 out of 45 cited legal cases were completely fake – believed to have been generated by AI tools. In another case, a law centre faced legal cost penalties after a pupil barrister cited invented cases multiple times.

In both situations, the use of AI led to false authorities being submitted to the court, wasting time, damaging credibility, and risking sanctions. Judges have now issued warnings about the dangers of AI producing convincing but entirely fictitious legal material.

AI tools can generate content that looks accurate but is completely made up. This can lead to serious legal consequences, including being held in contempt of court.
