13. There is no intelligence in AI.

It's just a program that harvests information from the internet, and puts it together in a way consistent with it's programing. It's fine for use in situations where the answer is easily deduced, and not very complex, like who did what, where and when.
Using it to put together a legal document for submission to a court is the height of laziness and stupidity. The AI program doesn't know how accurate, pertinent, or lawful these legal citations are, since it doesn't have an inherent understanding of the law, or the case at hand.
Using AI in this manner, amounts to legal malpractice; a failure to provide adequate defense for their client.
Please note, this is my opinion. I'm not a lawyer, but I do have a Masters Degree in Computer Science.
I see AI as helpful, but it's nowhere near far along in it's development to be used in the way it was in a courtroom.
