Two federal judges recently admitted their rulings included errors generated by artificial intelligence (AI), highlighting the lack of consistent national guidelines on AI use in U.S. courts, Reuters reports. That has led U.S. Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley, D-Iowa, to warn the judiciary that Congress is watching closely. He also is urging the courts to adopt formal, uniform safeguards against AI misuse. While many courts have issued local orders or policies, the federal judiciary is still relying on temporary guidance issued in July. The recent revelations have intensified scrutiny on how judges use AI, as state and federal courts continue developing policies aimed at balancing the technology’s promise with the need for human oversight.
