From La Union del Pueblo Entero v. Abbott, decided today by Judge Edith Jones, joined by Judge Kurt Engelhardt and District Judge Robert Summerhays (W.D. La.):
The district court gave an interview to the Wall Street Journal explaining how he had used artificial intelligence as an adjunct to his work on some aspects of a case "involving Texas[ ] election law." Whether it was this case is uncertain. However, as one distinguished U.S. Senator [Grassley] has commented, AI "must not be a substitute for legal judgment," nor must the public perceive that federal judges outsource our judgment to AI tools.
Thanks to Michael Smith (Smith Appellate Law Firm) for the pointer.
