What will an an online court system look like? Reframing: online courts aren’t an alternative to physical courts (a separate alternative dispute system) but an exercise in making online courts part of The Court.

Is court a place or a process?
@richardsusskind thinks it’s the latter, and there will soon be a book.#LegalTechSymposiumpic.twitter.com/HtJfkDARa1

Prediction, online courts (not meeting in person) will soon be the default. For example, undisputed divorce actions in England & Wales now operates largely on online forms. Best working example in his opinion is Civil Resolution Tribunal in British Columbia.

We’re reminded of the quote that the perfect shouldn’t be an enemy of the good. Lots new systems are better than the status quo.

Obligatory Deep Blue slide, but with a nuanced discussion of the paradigm shift in systems dev, from expert systems to brute force/data. That’s the future.

Leads into a discussion of Alpha Go and Alpha Go Zero, and the AI falsify that states that you have to train computers the same way we do people.

Law is not really about judgment a lot of the time, it’s about uncertainty, and questions around uncertainty are something machines are good at.

So what does this mean for robot judges? Maybe if courts can predict the outcomes of judges we don’t need judges. Maybe it doesn’t matter how they get to the answer if we get to the answer. Maybe a court is just a prediction machine.

This reminds me of the work of Ajay Agrawal,
@avicgoldfarb &@joshgans, namely their book Prediction Machines.#LegalTechSymposiumhttps://www.amazon.com/Prediction-Machines-Economics-Artificial-Intelligence/dp/1633695670 …Afficher cette discussion -
The question I have, what if a prediction isn’t what folks want (or only part of what folks want) from the courts? What if they want to be heard?

I think
@richardsusskind addresses this by proposing that parties assent to judgment by a robot judge. Coming from a crim background I’d argue that it all depends on the burden of proof. Preponderance of the Evidence is probabilistic. Reasonable Doubt is not.#LegalTechSymposiumAfficher cette discussion -
The common jury instruction in MA says that Reasonable Doubt is a measure of moral certainty, and I’d argue that only moral actors can make such judgments. Civil law is a different matter.

Ends talk by saying the best way to predict the future is to create it, arguing that we should embrace the change.
