California Sets Guardrails on Lawyers' AI Use

California has introduced new rules setting guardrails on how lawyers may use artificial intelligence in their work. The state bar's guidance addresses concerns over confidentiality, supervision and lawyers' duty to review AI-generated content. It comes as courts and regulators across the US grapple with incidents of attorneys submitting fabricated, AI-produced citations, making California one of the first states to formalise professional expectations for AI use in legal practice.

Why now: Regulators are reacting to widespread courtroom incidents of lawyers filing AI-generated material containing errors or fabricated citations.
