El 10 de marzo de 2026, E.D. North Carolina (Estados Unidos) conoció un asunto en el que un abogado se apoyó en una IA generativa no identificada y el expediente registró contenido alucinado.

Qué se alucinó

• Fabricación de jurisprudencia. Memorandum cited 'United States v. Hazel, 696 F.3d 473, 478 (4th Cir. 2012)' — court found no such Fourth Circuit case (citation appears fabricated).
• Fabricación de jurisprudencia. Memorandum cited 'United States v. Angel, 102 F.3d 1066 (4th Cir. 1996)' for a quoted rule; court found no such Fourth Circuit decision or matching quoted language.
• Tergiversación de jurisprudencia. Memorandum cited 'United States v. Brehm, 442 F.3d 1291, 1293 (4th Cir. 2006)' and attributed the quote 'any uncertainty should be resolved in the defendant's favor.' The court noted the cited Brehm reference is to a different circuit and does not contain that quoted language.
• Tergiversación de jurisprudencia. Memorandum cited 'United States v. Nealy, 232 F.3d 825, 829 (4th Cir. 2000)' for language about burdens the government cannot meet; court found the citation is to a different circuit and does not contain the asserted language.
• Citas falsas de jurisprudencia. Memorandum cited 'United States v. Edwards, 188 F.3d 230, 232 (4th Cir. 1999)' and quoted that packaging weight should not be included; court found Edwards does not contain that quoted language (false quotation).
• Tergiversación de jurisprudencia. Memorandum cited 'United States v. Harrision, 918 F.2d 469, 473 (4th Cir. 1990)' for a statement that laboratory testing is more precise; court noted the correct case is in a different circuit (Fifth) and does not contain that quoted text.
