LLMs are completely unable to verify.

That's an exaggeration. You can give a LLM access to real things and they can use those real things to verify. I just flatly do not understand why they are not. It wouldn't make them infallible, but it would go a huge way towards improving the situation, and they are clearly not doing it. They could also use non-AI software tools to check up on the AI output. I'd bet that you could even use a plagiarism detection tool for this purpose with little to no modification, but I'd also bet this kind of tool already exists anyway.

All research shows that increased penalties have no positive effect, but make the problem worse.

It also shows that if the penalty is insufficient then they have no positive effect. A fine that people with a lot of money can easily afford is just a prohibition which only applies to the poor, with a license fee. Look to speeding tickets which scale with income for a fair model.

Manually research the sources, verify each case cited

Clearly this not even even being done by an automated tool, let alone a human. An LLM which is given access to a database of actual cases could reasonably be successful at checking whether the cased cited even exist which isn't being checked now!

I mistake is different from glaring lack of professional conduct.

Using non-local AI in any way in court filings which are supposed to be confidential until filed is glaring lack of professional conduct right up front. Allowing AI hallucinations to get in to your court paperwork even once is the same. They should lose their license for one year the first time, five years the second time, and permanently the third.

Comment Re:Wow that's expensive (Score 1) 50

I was thinking the same thing. It must have a whole raft of licensing fees on it. If the price keeps enough people out of the market for it then these will turn out to be some of the most valuable minifigs of all time. I wonder what it costs if you buy the same pieces (less the figures) via parts orders.
