International Cyber Digest(@IntCyberDigest):❗️An expert witness billing $475 an hour to defend 3M over the 2020 Houston explosion, which got three people killed and roughly 200 homes destroyed, wrote his court report with ChatGPT. His prompt: "show how 3M is 0% at fault." 3M paid the company of the witness (Knighthawk Engineering) roughly $90,000 for its analysis... Plaintiffs' lawyers obtained 350 pages of his chat logs. He admitted at trial the report was 85–90% ChatGPT. The jury found 3M 30% liable, costing them $ 61M.
