Bar review coach delisted, fined for AI exam claim

The Supreme Court (SC) has fined and delisted a Bar exam review coach for claiming in 2023 that artificial intelligence would be used in reviewing test answers. Fined P30,000 and delisted from the list of 2016 Bar passers, Edgar Dizon has been declared guilty of indirect contempt for “undermining the integrity of the exams and the SC.” Dizon’s apparent lack of remorse, unauthorized practice of law in Bar review coaching sessions and authoring of review materials contributed to his punishment, the SC pointed out. The high court promulgated the decision on July 15.
