Fed. judge fines lawyer $5,000 for AI-generated filing that contained fabricated citations. He also has to alert future parties/judges.

"in this instance he used a Microsoft Word plug-in called Ghostwriter Legal to find additional cases to support the motion."

caselaw.findlaw.com/court/us-dis...

The Court further has no difficulty finding that Mr. Johnson's misconduct was more than mere recklessness. The Court notes that errors can happen in filings despite attorneys’ (and even judges’) best efforts. Yet the insertion of bogus citations is not a mere typographical error, nor the subject of reasonable debate. It is just wrong. There has been a plethora of general warnings from courts, bar associations, and the legal community at large about the risks of bogus citations generated by AI. Mr. Johnson even acknowledged that he was aware of such issues with other AI programs like ChatGPT. The fact he states he was unaware that a program such as Ghostwriter Legal could make such errors does not negate such a finding. Having been aware of the pitfalls of a failure to check citations supplied by another source, he still parroted citations generated by Ghostwriter Legal without verifying them. Ultimately such conduct reflects a complete and utter disregard for his professional duty of candor and is tantamount to bad faith. Thus, the Court will impose an appropriate sanction under its inherent authority.

Not that anybody comes to me for Maine politics, but the fact that the Democrats successfully convinced a 77yo Governor to primary the 41yo progressive, is today's example of why the Democrats fucking stay failing.

Susan Collins is 72 and if Schumer gets his way, she'll be the YOUNGER choice!

Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.

fwiw the problem with Ari is that she wants to get her designer medical care and let all the poor trans people under her suffer, and I think that makes her a monster

I believe that the far left is preying on the desperation of trans people in the search of cannon fodder for their revolutionary fantasies and it is hurting people. We cannot afford to eschew electoralism, nor can we take peace for granted.

What is with your constant punching left recently? "The left" and especially trans leftists have literally zero power. Do you not think that this energy is best used elsewhere?

Transsexualism as we conceive of it in America is bourgeois, the product of a society that venerates the freedom of an individual to choose. There is no designer vagina under communism, I'm sorry.

I seem to recall that it was the biggest 1st Amendment attack in American history when the Biden admin alerted social media companies to some content and said "hey does this violate your policies?" Will Matt Taibbi, Michael Shellenberger and (lol) CBS News Editor in Chief Bari Weiss call this out?

Tweet from Pam Bondi:

Today following outreach from
@thejusticedept
, Facebook removed a large group page that was being used to dox and target
@ICEgov
agents in Chicago.

The wave of violence against ICE has been driven by online apps and social media campaigns designed to put ICE officers at risk just for doing their jobs. The Department of Justice will continue engaging tech companies to eliminate platforms where radicals can incite imminent violence against federal law enforcement.

Speaker Mike Johnson just said he's completely fine with ICE agents shooting priests in the head with pepper balls and roughing up journalists.

I'm sure he'll tell us soon about how it's the Democrats who are waging a war on religion and free speech though.

Q: We've seen images out of Chicago of federal agents shooting faith leaders with pepper balls and arresting journalists. Where's the limit for you on what's acceptable conduct by federal agents?

MIKE JOHNSON: I've not seen them cross the line yet.

We have such a robust commitment to maintaining infrastructure that we're spending $1 billion less than we should be spending every single year, and spending that money on highway widening instead.

The United States is currently in material breach of over five hundred legally binding treaties with Indigenous nations. We violated even the treaties we coerced at the point of a sword.

We cannot talk about restoring the rule of law until we acknowledge and repair this fundamental truth.
