El 18 de julio de 2025, N.D. Illinois (Bankruptcy) (Estados Unidos) conoció un asunto en el que un abogado se apoyó en la herramienta de IA ChatGPT y el expediente registró contenido alucinado.

Qué se alucinó

• Citas falsas de jurisprudencia. In re Montoya, 341 B.R. 41 (Bankr. D. Utah 2006) exists, and the citation is correct. However, not only does the language quoted by counsel not appear anywhere in the court’s opinion, but the opinion does not address issues of standing at all. The opinion certainly does not dispute a secured creditor’s right to challenge the feasibility of a chapter 13 plan.
• Fabricación de jurisprudencia. In re Jager, 344 B.R. 349 (Bankr. D. Colo. 2006) does not exist.
• Citas falsas de jurisprudencia. In re Coleman, 373 B.R. 907 exists, although the case is from the Bankruptcy Court in the Western District of Missouri, not Wisconsin. Again, not only does counsel’s quotation not appear in the case at all, the opinion does not discuss the proposition for which it is cited, let alone support it
• Citas falsas de jurisprudencia. In re Russell, 458 B.R. 731, exists, although the case is from the Bankruptcy Court in the Eastern District of Virginia, not Wisconsin, and is from 2010, not 2011. Yet again, the quotation from counsel’s brief does not appear anywhere in the court’s opinion, and the opinion does not touch on the topic of standing at all
