Summary

Mark A. Lemley of Stanford Law School said AI adoption in U.S. legal practice has already expanded rapidly, with litigators using it to draft briefs and corporate lawyers to prepare contracts.

But he warned of growing risks tied to AI errors. “We have seen over 800 cases in which lawyers have been caught filing briefs that use hallucinated citations,” he said.
