A major use of AI that would save the economy hundreds of billions of dollars, if not a trillion plus, would be to streamline routine medical malpractice and personal injury cases by taking them out of the court system. I suspect there would be a lot less unnecessary treatment if a doctor's conduct could be measured against a specially trained AI, instead of allowing these cases to go to trial with hand-picked experts telling the jury how the doctor could've avoided the problem with more tests.

As it is, throwing a statistical word guessing machine at legal issues is a nightmare. Look at the lawyers already sanctioned for using AI that cited fake cases[1]

Generative AI will always hallucinate because it is impossible to separate the fact lookup part from the generative part.

This problem has been obvious for years and the evidence shows that hallucination rates have been steady the whole time.
