NSW chief justice warns of artificial intelligence and its use in state's legal system on eve of restrictions

The Chief Justice of New South Wales has expressed significant caution regarding the use of artificial intelligence in the legal system. Concerns center around the influence of big tech companies on AI models and the potential for manipulation of information. A partial ban on generative AI has been implemented, restricting its use in creating legal documents and evidence.

The Chief Justice emphasized that the role of judging should remain a human endeavor to preserve the integrity of democracy. While AI can assist in legal research, its reliability is questioned due to instances of 'hallucination' where AI generates false information. The guidelines for AI use in the NSW legal system will be regularly reviewed to adapt to the rapidly evolving technology landscape.
