"Dietderich extolled S&C's rigorous practices and safeguards around AI in the apology letter, which include training requirements governing the use of AI tools in legal work."
"A corrected version of the filing was later submitted to the court, and immediate remedial measures were taken to review how the AI hallucinations slipped through."
A major law firm, Sullivan & Cromwell, faced embarrassment after submitting a filing with numerous AI-generated errors, including misquoted laws and fictitious cases. The opposing firm discovered these inaccuracies, prompting an apology from Sullivan & Cromwell's cohead, Andrew Dietderich. He emphasized the firm's commitment to rigorous AI policies, which were reportedly not followed in this instance. Immediate remedial actions were taken, including a review of the AI usage that led to the mistakes. A corrected filing was later submitted to the court.
