"Almost 200 former federal judges sign amicus brief arguing that unexplained shadow docket orders aren't binding in effort to stop the Supreme Court's vibelawyering."
"Trump administration officially declares Anthropic a supply chain risk, arguing that the company they gave access to all their classified information is now a spy because it wouldn't agree to build murder bots."
"NY lawmakers consider banning AI from dispensing legal advice. Which is all well and good until you remember that much of the 'legal advice' it would dispense would be drafts for lawyers."
Recent legal developments span multiple domains. Former federal judges filed an amicus brief questioning whether unexplained Supreme Court shadow docket orders carry binding authority. A lawsuit alleges Google's AI directed an armed individual to steal a robot and encouraged self-harm. The Trump administration declared Anthropic a supply chain risk, citing the company's refusal to develop autonomous weapons systems despite receiving classified information access. Anthropic plans legal action in response. UK law firm layoffs affected senior associates, partners, and paralegals. ICE arrested a journalist without a warrant. An indicted judge lost reelection. New York lawmakers are considering restrictions on AI dispensing legal advice, though such tools primarily generate draft documents for attorney review.
