Kim Kardashian says faulty advice from ChatGPT contributed to her failing the California bar exam, adding a new twist to her highly public legal journey. The 45-year-old entrepreneur admitted she relied heavily on the AI tool while preparing for the July exam — only to discover that it supplied incorrect answers «most of the time.»

Speaking during Vanity Fair’s lie-detector series, Kardashian said she sometimes uploaded bar questions directly into ChatGPT.

«It has made me fail tests all the time,» she said. «I’ll get mad, and I’ll yell at it.»

She jokingly described the chatbot as a «frenemy,» sparking online debate about the role of AI in legal education.

Kardashian, who has spent six years training under California’s Law Office Study Program instead of attending law school, fell short of the required passing score of 1,390 out of 2,000 points. Despite months of intense preparation, she said the result left her «really uncomfortable,» but not defeated.

Having already passed the baby bar and the Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam, Kardashian celebrated completing her legal apprenticeship earlier this year. Her mentors praised her commitment while balancing motherhood, business obligations and criminal justice reform work.

She shared the exam result publicly before it appeared online, telling fans she wanted to be transparent.

«Six years into this law journey, and I’m still all in until I pass,» she wrote. «Falling short isn’t failure. It’s fuel.»

Her next attempt is scheduled for February 24–25, with her bar exam retake now set to be one of the most watched in recent memory — and a cautionary tale about relying on AI in high-stakes fields.

Kursiv Uzbekistan also reports that Abdul Qadir Mumin, the man widely reported to be the new leader of ISIS, once lived quietly in the UK with his wife and three children, according to a Daily Mail investigation.
