{"product_id":"b0h27cn1yn","title":"The Verification Imperative: Trustworthy AI in the Practice of Law","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 2023, two New York lawyers were sanctioned for filing a brief full of cases that did not exist. Their AI had invented every one — complete with realistic citations, quotations, and docket numbers. They are no longer alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe court decisions sanctioning lawyers for AI-fabricated citations now number in the thousands, and grow by several a day. The tools that caused them are marketed as trustworthy, verified, and hallucination-free — yet when Stanford researchers tested the leading purpose-built legal AI products, they still produced false information on as many as one in three queries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSo how is a working lawyer supposed to know which tools to trust, and how far?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Verification Imperative  answers that question with a framework, not a sales pitch. Drawing on the IEEE's recognized criteria for trustworthy AI — accountability, transparency, privacy, and bias — it gives lawyers a durable lens for evaluating any legal-AI tool, including ones that don't exist yet. It is built around five questions you can put to any vendor before you let their tool near a client's matter:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eShow me how I verify this. Where does my data go? What can't this tool see? Who is responsible when it's wrong? And how does it fail — loudly and safely, or silently and catastrophically? To show what those questions reveal, the author builds and then deliberately breaks a real citation-verification tool — documenting exactly where it worked, and exactly where it failed on a case every first-year law student knows. No tool is sold. No vendor is spared. The reader leaves not with a product to trust, but with a practice: the oldest discipline in law — you do not get to assert what you cannot verify — applied to its newest and most convincing instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the responsibility never transfers to the machine. It never could.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWritten for practicing attorneys, general counsel, and legal professionals navigating the real risks of AI in practice. Not legal advice; a framework for judgment. Written by a holder of the IEEE CertifAIEd™ professional certification, who built the tool he dissects.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANT","offers":[{"title":"Ebook","offer_id":52834658910424,"sku":"YSL56585","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0835\/3356\/2072\/files\/61HPRQryPxL._SY1500.jpg?v=1793260734","url":"https:\/\/www.bookmebay.com\/products\/b0h27cn1yn","provider":"BookMebay","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
