But was there a breathing closing attorney?

Probably, but a lot less breathes by the attorney during this transaction.

But was there a breathing closing attorney?

From Axios:

AI tools might be hallucinating less. But they're still spitting out inaccurate answers cloaked in polished, hyper-confident language.

Why it matters: The more people trust AI, the less likely they are to catch costly mistakes. It's a growing problem as people increasingly lean on the technology for research, medical advice and schoolwork.

The big picture: Obvious hallucinations are easy to catch. The real trouble comes from false answers that sound convincing.

Plausible citations, mostly correct summaries, and confidently wrong answers slip past users.

If AI becomes accurate enough often enough, people might stop fact-checking altogether.

Easy answer - actually read the AI output. Bad AI output is either lazy input, lazy prompting, or lazy checking.    But that's most of the workforce today...

But do you do more than read the AI output?  Do you fact check the output AI provides you?
AI has a huge ego for not being wrong and pinning it on only bad prompts seems pretty lazy in itself.
