British workers are increasingly relying on AI tools rather than lawyers to sue their employers. Judges report that many people now use artificial intelligence to draft legal claims for employment tribunals. This shift has resulted in a significant increase in self-filed cases, as AI-generated documents remove the need for legal fees. The employment tribunal system in Britain is under strain, with a backlog that has grown from 45,000 to 64,000 open cases within a year. Judges must still review all submitted claims, contributing to the mounting caseload. šŸ“° @aipost
