Having the questions drafted by non-lawyers using artificial intelligence is just unbelievable.鈥�

According to a recent by the State Bar, 100 of the 171 scored multiple-choice questions were made by Kaplan and 48 were drawn from a first-year law students exam. A smaller subset of 23 scored questions were made by ACS Ventures, the State Bar鈥檚 psychometrician, and developed with artificial intelligence.

鈥淭he State Bar has admitted they employed a company to have a non-lawyer use AI to draft questions that were given on the actual bar exam,鈥� she said. 鈥淭hey then paid that same company to assess and ultimately approve of the questions on the exam, including the questions the company authored.鈥�
