El 1 de abril de 2026, N.D. Indiana (Estados Unidos) conoció un asunto en el que un abogado se apoyó en una herramienta de IA generativa (no identificada en la decisión) y el expediente registró contenido alucinado.

Qué se alucinó

• Tergiversación de jurisprudencia. Cited a case identifier and Westlaw pin that do not match any order at that date; the named case exists under a different citation and does not support the asserted standing proposition.
• Tergiversación de jurisprudencia. Cited WildEarth Guardians for the proposition that denial of information necessary for scientific work constitutes injury, but the decision does not support the ESA-related information-injury argument advanced.
• Tergiversación de jurisprudencia. Cited In Defense of Animals v. NIH to support that loss of scientific data is an injury-in-fact, but the opinion is a FOIA case that does not address standing or scientific-injury doctrine.
• Tergiversación de jurisprudencia. Cited FEC v. Akins as supporting that denial of information necessary for scientific work is a recognized injury; Akins discusses standing in the election context and does not support the ESA/data proposition asserted.
• Tergiversación de jurisprudencia. Represented Ringling Bros. as holding that conservation/scientific professionals have standing when mistreatment disrupts their work; the D.C. Cir. opinion actually found the plaintiff's asserted desire to work with elephants speculative and relied on aesthetic-injury authority.
• Tergiversación de jurisprudencia. Provided citations that return unrelated matters or cannot be located at the cited identifiers (examples include PETA-related citations that point to different jurisdictions or unrelated cases).
