A list of Employment Tribunal judgments in which a party’s use of AI in bringing or conducting a claim, or in material created for it, is recorded. Each row says how the use came to be recorded, quotes the tribunal where a word-for-word quotation could be checked, and says what followed in that judgment.
AI use in bringing or conducting Employment Tribunal claims, including accepted use. Workplace AI use and AI as the subject of a claim are excluded. Suspected rows are where the tribunal itself raised suspicion; Admitted means the party said they used AI; Found means the tribunal found that AI was used. Cases that were only alleged by the other side are not included. A row describes what the tribunal said and what happened in that judgment. It is not a label on the party, and a row does not mean the use of AI was improper.
New judgments are searched for AI-related words used close to words about using, generating or citing material. A model running on a local computer screens the matches, and then every new row is checked by a larger cloud model before it is treated as checked. The search finds judgments that use those words, so a judgment that does not is missed: these are the judgments found, not all of them, and the totals are a minimum.
What followed is described as following from the AI use only where the tribunal itself linked the two. Otherwise the outcome in that judgment is stated without suggesting a cause. The tags are: Accepted (the tribunal said something accepting about the use), Invented authorities (cited authorities that do not exist), Length (the material was described as long, repetitive or hard to follow), Misdirection (the tribunal itself linked wrong claims or arguments to the AI use), Wording (AI used to word the party’s own documents) and Transcripts (AI-generated transcripts).
Rows that have not yet had that final check are marked Unchecked, and counted separately at the top of the page. The tag comes off when the check is made. A quotation is shown only where it appears word for word in the judgment.
It is not a verified dataset and nothing here should be cited. Rows are found and coded by software, and some points have been checked by hand. Errors may remain. No accuracy rate is claimed. This is a finding aid. It is not legal advice and not a citable source. Find the judgment on GOV.UK and read it.

Year of the judgment. The totals are a minimum: they count the judgments the searches found.
