Fair Work Commission condemns 'plain wrong' AI legal advice

The Fair Work Commission ordered former ALDI employee Sadnan Khan to pay $1,230 in legal costs after finding his AI-generated submissions were “plain wrong” and had no realistic chance of success. A commissioned report shows Fair Work cases have risen 40% as self-representing litigants increasingly rely on generative AI, prompting a rule effective 20 October requiring applicants to disclose any AI use.
