:rofl:

In all seriousness it is wild that the lawyer in question was so bold as to just lean on generative AI here. I’m sure that a fair few less-licensed professions are pushing output hallucinations into the world as I type; being less consequential, it is unlikely they would be questioned in such a way. Good it was caught.
