AI’s growing abilities to create realistic videos, images, documents and audio have judges worried about the trustworthiness of evidence in their courtrooms.

We’ve heard of lawyers fucking up using ChudGPT in their documents, now we’ve got lawyers and plaintiffs pushing AI Slop as legal evidence! Can’t wait for this shitshow of an era to crash and burn.

    So the judge basically gave them an instant loss for submitting the video. Even worse, they tried to appeal saying the judge hadn’t proved it’s AI lol (it’s very clear from the video in the other comment though).

    I don’t think that is going nearly far enough. You can’t just plant evidence and the worst scenario is losing the case. This is evidence fraud, there needs to be actual real consequences.

      Cool, so what happens when the AI video can no longer be distinguished from the real thing?

      We are heading into some pretty weird uncharted territory just so some Tech Bros can make a buck.

      I think it is time to start a large AI fund to deal with all the damage it will cause. Something like 40% of gross profits just to be safe.
