Fugees rapper says lawyer's use of AI helped tank his case, pushes for new trial_我的网站

A |     WASHINGTON -- A multimillion-dollar conspiracy trial that stretched across the worlds of politics and entertainment is now touching on the tech world with arguments that a defense attorney for a Fugees rapper bungled closing arguments by using an artificial intelligence program.Prakazrel “Pras” Michel argued that the use of the “experimental” generative AI program was one of a number of errors made by his “unqualified, unprepared and ineffectual" trial attorney before his conviction earlier this year, according to a motion for new trial his new lawyers filed this week. The company behind the program, on the other hand, said it was a tool used to help write closing statements, and a harbinger of major changes in the field. Generative AI programs are capable of creating realistic text, images and video. They're raising tough questions about misinformation and copyright protections as well as industry calls for regulations in Congress. Programs like ChatGPT have already had ripple effects across professions like writing and education. The arguments in the Michel case could preview issues to come as the technology makes a rapid advance. The Grammy-winning rapper's trial was touted as the first time generative AI was used in a federal trial in a news release from the startup company that designed the system. Defense attorney David Kenner, well known for his previous representation of rappers like Suge Knight and Snoop Dogg, also gave a quote calling the system a “game changer for complex litigation."But in his last words to the jury, Kenner appeared to mix up key elements of the case and misattributed the lyric “Every single day, every time I pray, I will be missing you,” to the Fugees, the 1990s hip-hop group his client co-founded, when actually it is a well-known line from a song by the rapper Diddy, then known as Puff Daddy, court documents from Michel’s new attorney, Peter Zeidenberg, stated.Kenner did not respond to a phone call and email seeking comment from The Associated Press. The company, EyeLevel.AI, said the program wasn't “experimental” but instead trained using only facts from the case, including court transcripts, not musical lyrics or anything found online. It's intended to provide fast answers to complex questions to help, not replace, human lawyers, said co-founder and COO Neil Katz. “We think AI technology is gong to completely revolutionize the legal field by making it faster and cheaper to get complex answers to legal questions and research,” Katz said. He denied an allegation from Michel's new lawyers that Kenner appeared to have a financial interest in the program.The case will likely be closely watched as more law firms adopt the technology, said Sharon Nelson, president of Sensei Enterprises, a digital forensics, cybersecurity and information technology firm. A substantial number of firms are using it now, and surveys indicate more than 50% of lawyers expect to within the next year, she said. “It's gone much faster than we thought,” she said. “The problem is, if you don't work with it, you're going to be left behind.”Michel was found guilty in April on all 10 counts he was charged with, including conspiracy and acting as an unregistered agent of a foreign government. He faces up to 20 years in prison on the top counts. He is free ahead of sentencing, which has not yet been set. “At bottom, the AI program failed Kenner, and Kenner failed Michel. The closing argument was deficient, unhelpful, and a missed opportunity that prejudiced the defense,” wrote Zeidenberg. His other arguments for a new trial included the jury being prejudiced by being allowed to hear references to the “crime fraud exception” and “co-conspirators."Michel was accused of funneling money from a now-fugitive Malaysian financer through straw donors to Barack Obama’s 2012 reelection campaign, then trying to squelch a Justice Department investigation and influence an extradition case on behalf of China under the Trump administration. His trial included testimony ranging from actor Leonardo DiCaprio to former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions.Kenner had argued during the trial the Grammy-winning rapper simply wanted to make money and got bad legal advice as he reinvented himself in the world of politics.It wasn't immediately clear when a judge might rule on the motion for a new trial. Use of generative AI in the legal profession is in the early stages, but it could see much more widespread adoption as products improve, said John Villasenor, a professor of engineering and public policy at the University of California, Los Angeles. The American Bar Association does not yet have any guidelines on the use of AI in the legal profession, though there is a new task force studying the issue, a spokeswoman said. Using it for closing arguments is complicated because of the many factors that develop over the course of a trial, he said. Generative AI, meanwhile, also sometimes produces “hallucinations,” statements that initially read as if they are accurate but are not.“A good attorney coming up with closing arguments will be mindful of basic goals of the case but also of the specific ways in which the trial has played out,” he said. Even as products improve, “attorneys that use AI should make sure they very carefully fact check anything they are going to use.”。    AI摘要      福州鼓楼区汤边社区儿童友好空间建设经验入选国家推广清单。该社区通过“小而美”适儿化改造，鼓励儿童参与设计，优化通学安全与公共空间，以低成本实现高效益，为全国提供可复制的“福州方案”。         记者19日从市妇联获悉，住房城乡建设部、国家发展改革委、国务院妇女儿童工作委员会办公室日前联合发布《城市儿童友好空间建设可复制经验清单（第三批）》，福州市鼓楼区汤边社区的创新做法入选，成为福州又一个被纳入国家层面推广的儿童友好建设案例。         孩子们在改造后的茉莉花游戏地绘上快乐玩耍。

C | 最终，茉莉花图案、吉祥物“温温”“泉泉”、石头剪刀布游戏彩绘等由孩子们亲手设计的元素一一落地。

D | 孩子们不再只是服务的接受者，更是社区改造的参与者。    公共空间的改造同样不乏巧思。社区将一处闲置街角打造成“泡泡攀讲台”，巧妙融入福州本土的“攀讲”文化，为儿童搭建了一个可以分享心事、展示才艺的开放式舞台。结合二十四节气，社区还设置了“谷雨新茶”“夏至茉莉”“白露龙眼”“冬至福橘”等互动装置，让孩子们在家门口就能感受四季流转。夜间，新增的儿童友好主题灯光不仅提升了区域亮度，也为孩子们活动提供了安全保障。    在解决通学安全问题上，社区针对温泉小学周边人车混行、公交站点设置不合理等长期痛点，专门开辟了一条1.5米宽的儿童专属通道，采用黄蓝配色增强辨识度，施划彩色斑马线并增设趣味引导标识。同时协调公交公司和交警部门对公交站台进行迁移，从源头消除安全隐患。

E |     据统计，该项目新增儿童友好空间约800平方米，惠及儿童超4000人，儿童参与设计率达80%以上，社区儿童满意度提升至96%。更值得一提的是，此次改造，单平方米成本控制在200元以内，真正做到“花小钱办实事”。目前，社区已建立起“社区+学校+家长志愿者”三方联动的长效运营机制，每月定期开展儿童议事、自然课堂、攀讲沙龙等活动，空间使用率保持在85%以上。    市妇儿工委办相关负责人表示，接下来福州将继续推广“小而美”的适儿化改造经验，为全国提供更多可复制、可推广的儿童友好“福州方案”。
