But the explanation and Ramirez’s promise to educate himself on the use of AI wasn’t enough, and the judge chided him for not doing his research before filing. “It is abundantly clear that Mr. Ramirez did not make the requisite reasonable inquiry into the law. Had he expended even minimal effort to do so, he would have discovered that the AI-generated cases do not exist.

So I think this whole thing about whether it can lie or not is just semantics then no?
everything is semantics.
Lying is telling a falsehood intentionally
LLM’s clearly lack the prerequisite intentionality
They can’t have intent, no?
The llm is incapable of having intent because it’s just programming
precisely, which is why they cannot lie, just respond with no real grasp of wether what they output is truth or falsehoods.
