Answers: How does FRE 707 (proposed) treat AI-generated work, and what record supports review?
What it requires.
Proposed Federal Rule of Evidence 707 would subject machine-generated evidence offered without a sponsoring expert to the same reliability factors as FRE 702(b)–(d) — a Daubert-shaped bar of a reliable method, reliably applied. The rule is PROPOSED and not yet effective: advanced by the Advisory Committee on Evidence Rules 2025-05-02, public comment closed 2026-02-16, a final report is expected June 2026, and the earliest possible effective date is 2027-12-01. Until then it binds no one, but it signals the reliability foundation courts will expect of standalone AI evidence.
What the evidence record proves.
- Distinctness, drift, and coherence run against the fleet under test, sealed in a Merkle-rooted, SHA-256-pinned record
- Any party can recompute the record byte-for-byte
- Documents method reliability and application stability — the empirical record a 702/707-shaped reliability inquiry runs on
- Includes the 5-axis battery alongside the audit triad
- Produces the reliability record before the evidence is offered, not after a challenge
What this does not prove. Planisphere does not opine that any specific output is admissible — admissibility is the court's gatekeeping call — and does not certify a tool '707-compliant,' since Rule 707 is proposed and not yet in effect. It measures model behaviour and emits a reproducible reliability record; counsel and the court decide what it proves. Not legal advice.
