Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) is an imperative aspect of modern society. However, in the legal field, AI must be used with the utmost discretion. Earlier this year, an attorney from Utah used ChatGPT to create a brief which produced a case that does not exist. In response, the Utah Court of Appeals sanctioned the attorney. Nevertheless, at the 2025 ABA TECHSHOW, a legal tech startup launched an artificial intelligence mediator.

Evidently, an attorney cannot ethically use AI to write a brief defending their client in litigation. Yet, the underlying question remains: why should AI be replacing human mediators?

The print edition of the issue has also been released. This post was originally published on the Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution website on November 3, 2025.
