Judge Gives Humiliating Punishment to Lawyers Caught Using AI in Court

AI tools have become a hit with lawyers. But judges have shown they have little patience for when their experiments with the tech go wrong. When combing over a document submitted by two defense lawyers from the firm Cozen O'Connor, district judge David Hardy found at least 14 citations of case law that appeared to be fictitious, Reuters reported. Others were misquoted or misrepresented. After being confronted, the two defense lawyers soon pleaded guilty: one of them had used ChatGPT to draft a

Trevor Milton's Nikola Case Dropped by SEC Following Trump Pardon

The US Securities and Exchange Comission (SEC) has dropped its fraud case against Nikola‘s founder and former CEO Trevor Milton, after Trump’s pardon six months ago. Trevor Milton, who had been convicted of securities fraud, received a pardon from the US President Donald Trump in March, a month after the Phoenix-based electric and hydrogen truck maker Nikola filed for bankrupcy.

Forecasters at the National Hurricane Center expect this storm to strengthen into the second hurricane of the season by Sunday. Gabrielle’s emergence followed 20 days of no named storms in the Atlantic basin—a dry spell that WPLG-TV hurricane specialist Michael Lowry called “unprecedented” for the peak of the Atlantic hurricane season.

The new iPhone 17 Pro aluminum body may be more prone to scuffs and scratches

9to5mac.com Benjamin Mayo 2025-09-22 01:58:54

It’s iPhone 17 release day, and that means the internet is ready to start the next drama about the redesigned phones. One early concern is about the superficial durability of the iPhone 17 Pro aluminum chassis, especially on the darker color Deep Blue model. If this worries you, it’s a good time to buy a case. Because anodized aluminum still has the raw silver metal color underneath, any light nicks or scratches are much more visible to the eye, compared to similar wear and tear to the iPhone 1
