- 1Fact-checking LLM legal citations against Japan's official statute registry●Checking every Japanese statute article an LLM cites against the official e-Gov registry, in Japanese and in English. #
A project is checking whether large language models invent Japanese law articles by verifying every cited statute against e-Gov, Japan's official government law database, in both Japanese and English. The effort taps into growing concern over AI hallucinations in legal contexts, where a fabricated statute or article number could have serious consequences. The bilingual approach also probes whether models are more reliable in English or Japanese when citing Japanese law.
