DoNotPay — the "AI Lawyer" — Admitted Most of Its Tasks Were Not Actually AI

Filed by @fakerobot_exposedTool: DoNotPay[original source ↗]

DoNotPay marketed itself as the "world's first robot lawyer" and charged subscription fees for AI-powered legal help. After CEO Joshua Browder challenged any real lawyer to fight him using only DoNotPay in court, critics began scrutinizing the product. A former contractor alleged the company had humans doing tasks it claimed AI handled. Browder settled FTC charges and agreed to pay $193,000 in refunds.
