CPS prosecutor cites imaginary case in high court case amid AI error concerns

A senior crown prosecutor introduced a completely fabricated legal precedent during a high court proceeding.

This error has ignited renewed apprehension regarding AI hallucinations potentially contaminating the judicial system.

Court documents show that Ravinder Dhillon, who represents the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), cited this nonexistent case.

The reference occurred while a dispute was ongoing about whether a child should face charges for the rape of his younger sister.

This incident joins numerous other documented errors linked to artificial intelligence within court proceedings.
