In 1979 the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twinkie_defense was first used. Though not actually the basis of the defense, and really an argument of diminished capacity, never the less the consumption of Twinkies was a part of an argument in a successful defense strategy that allowed a defendant who admitted to killing a victim to obtain a Not Guilty verdict.

This market will resolve to TRUE if anyone posts verifiable evidence in the comments no later than a week after closing that by the end of 2023 a defendant in a Felony case bases part of their defense on an AI system having an influence on them. For example, claiming that a ChatBot told them to commit the crime, or was misled that an action wasn't a crime, etc.

This market will not resolve to YES on the basis of use of AI in a crime unless the defense concedes that the act was commited, and attempts to mitigate culability on the basis of influence by AI.
