Separate the Real Lead From the Fabrication
You take raw AI output on a fraud subject and sort what is worth pursuing from what the model invented. This is the exercise that teaches why specificity is not verification.
Find Where the Investigation Is Exposed
You review a work product where AI has crept in at the wrong points, and you mark where the case is compromised or open to challenge in discovery.
Document So It Holds
You build the record that keeps AI-derived leads defensible under cross-examination, with the line between a lead and a finding drawn where it belongs.
About the course
You already know AI can move an investigation faster. This workshop is where you practice moving fast without leaving the work exposed. It is two hours of hands-on exercises, built for investigators who use AI on real cases and need the discipline to match the speed. You work the same kinds of problems the job hands you. Raw AI output that mixes genuine leads with fabricated ones. A file where the efficiency created a weakness. A set of leads that has to be documented so it survives the moment someone challenges it. Each exercise is drawn from a real engagement, reworked for practice. This is the practitioner tier, so the emphasis is on doing. You leave having practiced the judgment the work requires, not just read about it.
Practice separating a genuine AI-generated lead from a fabricated one, using the same kind of raw output a real case produces.
Learn to spot where AI use has left an investigation exposed, before opposing counsel does.
Build documentation that keeps AI-derived leads defensible from the first draft through the deposition.
