Partner Amy Rudolph discusses how attorneys can limit the fallout when AI-generated errors appear in court filings. She explains the value of owning the mistake and showing the court what has been done to prevent it from happening again. She also discusses potential responses when suspecting errors in filings by a judge or opposing counsel, emphasizing that professional obligations remain unchanged.

"The ethics and rules are the same as they've always been," Amy said. "AI just presents a new set of facts to which we assign those rules."
