Why not to use genAI.
A gripping tale, told in a court judgement, by a judge with a very fine dry sense of humour.
" [...] a junior associate had used AI to research the point and the AI invented the quotation. The junior associate [LA] did not check it and neither did the solicitors supervising them. LA seems to have almost exclusively relied upon AI to provide the answers and did not check its references, even when told to do so by the AI itself. [...] (section 71)
Every sentence in this tale is worth reading. I love how the judge keeps referring with mock sympathy to the AI tool, which in his account does its best to warn its clueless human user that it really knows nothing and that there are facts that await to be checked by its human user.
Highly entertaining, and frightening too. Frightenig primarily because the junior associate clearly has lost every notion of writing without an AI tool.

I've just finished reading the UK Government's new report today on the use of copyright works in the development of artificial intelligence (AI) systems, produced by the Dept for Science, Innovation and Technology, the Dept for Culture, Media and Sport & the Intellectual Property Office UK.
Here are the key respondent views + conclusions from the government - I'm available for on-air commentary as needed:
📌Gov UK most concerned about AI creating "digital replicas" of someone’s voice or face - but bizarrely not bothered about copyrighted texts, images, software etc being used in AI model training datasets (the report calls it "input transparency")
📌There is currently no mandate for AI developers to disclose publicly what IP they are using in their datasets, only which web crawlers they use to crawl the internet. But not what data they crawl or what it is used for
📌Creative industries strongly support the introduction of mandatory standards on input transparency, while tech firms have complained of the "practical and financial burdens of disclosure", particularly affecting small AI startups
📌AI developers & tech firms want exceptions to copyright for AI innovation. Creative industries have rejected the option to opt out of this
📌Gov UK to work on best practices around labelling the content outputted by AI models as AI-generated, but they want to see what other nations do first
📌However, Govt UK said this despite including in this report the new legislation from California, China and South Korea that already requires AI content to be labelled as such on release
📌Gov UK won't "intervene" in the copyright licensing market right now, because "many stakeholders" didn't want it (who tho? 👀)
📌Gov UK to "consider" further work on barriers to enforcing IP rights
Dunno, feels like the House of Lords is right. The UK Govt is still hedging against tightening legislation, in favour of the tech giants.
But what happens when the AI models ingest everything related to all white collar jobs that require a computer? What will we do then?

The Justice Ministry is proposing to take 75% Client Account Interest into its own hands, so a tax.
This is essentially Clients own money as Solicitors have to account for it.
