That has been proven not to work and a variation of the "make no mistakes" meme. What about the lawyer doing the actual work, he/she is being paid for?

?! It does work but you need separate (sub)agents (and potentially loop it until the reviewer agent finds nothing). You also need to set it up a bit so all citations mentioned are easy to identify. Ideally this is also done programmatically, ie parse text find citations and ensure they say what you think they say (llm part).

It does not work because the errors compound and also are most times correlated.

Sure, and there are existing legal research tools which would help here (LexisNexis, amongst others, will happily sell you a suitable service).

Constraining an agent by forcing it to pass some form of external validation is one of the best ways we have of minimising hallucinations.

But is a lawyer who is this lazy and this dishonest ever likely to bother doing that?

An AI does not need bonus to keep up with a trophy wife...

If you spent your whole career inside one corporate ecosystem...do not confuse your rank in that hierarchy, with your rank in the profession. By looking at the some comments here, many are doing that.

I am also Sovereign. Will do it for half the price this one is asking for.

I love Hereditary Dentists....

It does matter. His airplane has to make more and zigzags, to avoid any airspace where he can be arrested. And he is only one mechanical fault away from landing in a place who will extradite him to The Hague...

Who is that someone? And unnamed employee that told somebody else?

They make less than 140 million in revenue, what today is like 5 signing bonus for OpenAI :-) They are not profitable and see through less than 2 billion in revenue.

These are easy to check so...
