You cite three cases. They look right. The citations are formatted correctly. The case names sound familiar.

They are not real.

This is not a hypothetical. Lawyers have been sanctioned, publicly, for filing AI-generated citations that pointed to cases that do not exist in any court record. The AI did not flag the error. It presented fabricated authority with the same confidence it presents real authority.

That is the core problem with most AI tools in legal work. They are built to sound correct. They are not built to be correct.

The fix is not to stop using AI. The fix is to only use AI that shows its work. Every citation linked to a real, verifiable source. Every claim traceable. And a system that refuses to fabricate rather than one that fabricates fluently.

That is a different kind of tool. It is the kind of thing we built Juris to do.

Before you file anything an AI helped draft, one question is worth sitting with. Do you actually know where that citation comes from?
