These penalties need to be larger. Think of all the hours of work that using ChatGPT could save a lawyer. An occasional $2500 fine will not deter the behavior.
And this matters, because this database is only the fabrications which got caught. What happens when a decision is formulated based on AI-fabricated evidence, and that decision becomes precedent?
Here in the US, our legal system is already having its legitimacy assailed on multiple fronts. We don't need additional legitimacy challenges.
How about disbarring lawyers who present confabulated evidence?

I'm presuming that if my case gets dismissed because my lawyer submits fabricated AI generated materials to the court, then I would have a very good case against my lawyer for professional misconduct. And that the damages could be very high.
