The lawyer sued the airline, but the case crashed with a robot

An American lawyer gets into trouble after letting a robot do the job. The judge soon realized that it was all a fabrication.

The airline Avianca was sued, but their lawyers had an easy win at first.

On a flight, Roberto Matta was injured when one of the flight attendants’ carriages struck his knee. Mata hired lawyers to seek compensation.

The airline, Avianca, said the case did not belong in the legal system. Judge Kevin Castle asked Mata’s attorney to explain why a full hearing of the case should be held.

Very quickly, attorney Stephen Schwartz returned with a ten-page document. She cited cases such as Martinez v. Delta Airlines and Varghese v. China Southern Airlines and many other issues. In this way, he wanted to show that there is a strong precedent for the court to deal with such cases.

Fair nonsense

He passed the exam

While the real students got a B+ grade on average, the robot had to settle for a C+.

– ChatGPT researcher Jonathan Choi concluded, on his own, that he was a fairly mediocre student. He added that the bot could still be useful to many lawyers. They can use AI to write first drafts when preparing cases.

Attorney Stephen Schwartz opined that a robot’s work should be seen as a draft, and that everything should be quality-assured.

Mixing facts

blog Scottosblog Covers the Supreme Court of the United States. Journalists there asked ChatGPT 50 questions about the country’s highest court. It didn’t go well.

Only 21 of the answers were completely correct. The quality of the wood was questionable. 26 was an outright mistake.

Mixed facts about robotics and pure manufacturing. For example, conservative judge Clarence Thomas has been portrayed as very gay-friendly. His vote in court shows just the opposite.
