Michael Cohen Unintentionally Uses AI to Submit Fake Legal Citations

Michael Cohen, former lawyer for Donald Trump, admitted to submitting fake legal citations generated by AI in an attempt to end court supervision of his case. He claimed ignorance of AI's ability to fabricate information, believing it functioned like an advanced search engine. This incident highlights the challenges the legal industry faces with AI integration and raises questions about Cohen's credibility as he is a key witness in a case against Trump. Cohen blamed his lawyer for not verifying the citations but asked for leniency on his behalf.
