Fugees is asking for a new trial in his money laundering case after claiming that his lawyer created a “failed” closing argument with generative AI.In April this year, Michel was convicted for his involvement in a billion-dollar Malaysian money laundering scheme.As reported by Reuters, however, a brief filed on Michel’s behalf has requested a retrial on the grounds that the musician’s previous attorney David Kenney reportedly used the AI program EyeLevel.AI to create the closing statement.According to the brief, filed by Michel’s new legal representation team at ArentFox Schiff: “Kenner’s closing argument made frivolous arguments, misapprehended the required elements, conflated the schemes and ignored critical weaknesses in the government’s case.”It continued: “The AI program failed Kenner, and Kenner failed Michel. The closing argument was deficient, unhelpful and a missed opportunity that prejudiced the defense.”Kenner has not responded to the brief.
NME has contacted his office for a response.Furthermore, the brief alleges that Kenner and his legal partner Alon Israely have a financial stake in CaseFile Connect, a “technology partner” to EyeLevel.AI, saying that Kenner intended to use Michel’s case to promote the company. A statement from EyeLevel.AI states that Kenner and Israely do not have a financial stake in the company.“EyeLevel’s AI for legal is a powerful tool for human lawyers to make human decisions, but do so faster and with far greater information at their fingertips,” wrote the company in a response to the brief.
