KDL say
Whilst we as a firm are all for parties seeking to minimise their exposure to costs by undertaking steps themselves in the conduct of proceedings, we have seen a worrying rise in (our lay opponent’s) use of AI in responding to, or bringing claims against, our clients.

The main concern is the total reliance by the lay opponent on the information gleaned from an AI based research. There is a worrying perception that what is on the internet is absolutely correct all of the time.

EVC say
We completely agree with KDL and, like other agents, we are seeing people send pages long complaints or questions because they are channelling everything through AI and they completely believe that it must be correct and that us professionals with years of training and qualifications under our belts, must be wrong.
