A recent case from Brazil illustrates a developing category of AI risk with direct implications for U.S. businesses.  The court fined two lawyers for embedding a prompt injection into a court petition to manipulate the court’s AI tools.  The lawyers in question inserted invisible text (white letters on a white background) directing the court’s AI systems to review their petition, but not challenge it, regardless of any other instructions it was given.  The court discovered the hidden command, characterized it as an attempted manipulation of its AI systems, and sanctioned the lawyers.

Connecticut employers that rely on AI-driven tools for recruiting, screening, or workforce management now face a detailed statutory framework governing those practices. Public Act No. 26-15 (the “Act”) was signed into law on June 2, 2026.  The Act addresses subjects ranging from automated hiring technology to whistleblower channels for employees at AI developers. The compliance timeline is staggered: some provisions took effect immediately, while the most operationally intensive obligations take effect in October 2027. Connecticut is the latest state to take steps towards regulating use of AI in the employment sphere, following Colorado, Illinois, New York City, California and others.

Three recent federal court decisions have created some uncertainty about whether materials created using generative AI tools are protected by attorney-client privilege or the work product doctrine. In United States v. Heppner, the court held that a party’s use of a consumer AI platform without attorney direction vitiated any privilege protection. However, in Warner v. Gilbarco, Inc. and Morgan v. V2X Inc., courts reached more protective conclusions, holding that AI tools are instruments, not third parties, and that using them does not automatically waive work product protection. These conflicting rulings highlight immediate risks for corporate entities and employees who use AI to research legal issues or prepare litigation-related materials.

Artificial intelligence is no longer a future consideration for employers – it is already reshaping how companies hire, manage, and engage their workforces and how their workforce performs their job duties. From AI-powered resume screening tools to automated note-taking applications and generative AI platforms embedded in everyday workflows, AI has become a fixture in the modern workplace. But with rapid adoption comes a host of employment law considerations that employers cannot afford to overlook.
